An introduction to particle aspects of cosmology with particular reference to primordial nucleosynthesis, dark matter and baryogenesis is provided. In particular, various scenarios-GUT baryogenesis, electroweak baryogenesis and baryogenesis through leptogenesis are reviewed.

Introductory review of cosmic inflation
These lecture notes provide an introduction to cosmic inflation. In particular the basic concepts of inflation, generation of density perturbations, and reheating after inflation.

Numerical Simulations in Cosmology I: Methods
This lecture gives a short introduction to different methods used in cosmology. The focus is on major features of N-body simulations: equations, main numerical techniques, effects of resolution, and methods of halo identification.

A set of postrscript lecture notes on the basic principles of cosmology.

From Newton's Laws to the Wheeler-deWitt equation
This is a pedagogical paper which explains some ideas in cosmology at a level accessible to undergraduate students. Following standard quantization procedures the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in the minisuperspace approximation is derived for empty and non-empty universes.

Minkowski Functionals in Cosmology
Minkowski functionals provide a novel tool to characterize the large-scale galaxy distribution in the Universe. Here we give a brief tutorial on the basic features of these morphological measures and indicate their practical application for simulation data and galaxy redshift catalogues as examples.

A Review of Inflationary Cosmology
The aim of this lecture is to highlight two areas of recent progress in inflationary cosmology, namely reheating and the quantum theory of cosmological perturbations.

A short review of recent results on exact solutions in multidimensional cosmology

Mathematical Cosmology
A review of current unsolved problems in mathematical cosmology

Introduction to Cosmology
These notes form an introduction to cosmology with special emphasis on large scale structure, the cmb anisotropy and inflation. In some places a basic familiarity with particle physics is assumed, but otherwise no special knowledge is needed.

A Simple Introduction to Pre-Big-Bang Physics/Cosmology
A simple, non-technical introduction to the pre-big bang scenario is given, emphasizing physical motivations, considerations, and consequences over formalism.

Elementary introduction to pre-big bang cosmology and to the relic graviton background
This is a contracted version of a series of lectures for graduate and undergraduate students

Dynamical Systems in Cosmology
A tutorial introducing the use of dynamical systems to study the large scale structure of the universe.

Cosmic Topology
General relativity does not allow one to specify the topology of space, leaving the possibility that space is multi- rather than simply- connected. This paper reviews the mathematical properties of multi-connected spaces, and the different tools to classify them and to analyse their properties.
