• Cosmic Topology

  http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9605010
  Technical article by M. Lachieze-Rey and J. P. Luminet about cosmic topology: global properties of the universe that are not restricted by general relativity.

• Current Trends in Mathematical Cosmology

  http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0107090
  Technical article which reviews current unsolved problems in mathematical cosmology, including the question of singularities, problems associated with the definition and asymptotic structure of the notion of cosmological solutions, and problems related to the qualification of approximations. By Spiros Cotsakis (University of the Aegean).

• Minkowski Functionals in Cosmology

  http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/9508154
  A brief (if technical) tutorial on the basic features of Minkowski functional, a new class of morphological measures. Includes information on their practical application for simulation data and galaxy redshift catalogues. By J. Schmalzing, M. Kerscher, and T. Buchert.

• Multidimensional Gravity and Cosmology

  http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9801037
  Review article by V. N. Melnikov on exact solutions in multidimensional cosmology. Based on talks given at the eigth Marcel Grossmann Meeting, in Jerusalem.

• Topology of the Universe

  http://www.maths.lse.ac.uk/Personal/mark/topos.pdf
  A simple introduction to the idea that the universe might have a more complicated shape than is usually assumed, and to the consequences of that idea. Written by Mark Baltovic; uses simple mathematical concepts only.

• Universe Today: The Universe is Not Expanding Uniformly

  http://www.universetoday.com/2008/10/11/the-universe-is-not-expanding-uniformly/
