Abstract

In the framework of renormalization-group improved cosmologies, we use the Noether symmetry approach to get exact and general integration of the matter-dominated cosmological equations. This is performed by using an expression of Λ  =  Λ (G) determined by the method itself. We also work out a comparison between such a model and the concordance ΛCDM model as to the magnitude–redshift relationship, hence showing that no appreciable differences occur.
