Abstract
Much effort has been made in trying to solve or at least evade the inconsistencies that emerge from general relativity as the framework for a cosmological model. The extradi- mensional models rise as superb possibilities on this regard. In this work I present cosmo- logical solutions for Wesson's Space-Time-Matter theory of gravity. A relation between mass variation at cosmological scales and the expansion velocity of the universe is ob- tained. Such a relation yields novel features on Space-Time-Matter theory of gravity, which are carefully discussed.
