Brane gas cosmology provides a dynamical decompactification mechanism that could account for the number of spacetime dimensions we observe today. In this work we discuss this scenario taking into account the full bosonic sector of…
We propose a mechanism for solving the horizon and entropy problems of standard cosmology which does not make use of cosmological inflation. Crucial ingredients of our scenario are brane gases, extra dimensions, and a confining potential…
We show that in brane-world scenarios with warped extra dimensions, the Casimir force due to bulk matter fields may be sufficient to stabilize the radion field $\phi$. In particular, we calculate one loop effective potential for $\phi$…

We study the cosmology for a two branes model in a space-time of five dimensions where the extra coordinate is compactified on an orbifold. The hidden brane is filled with a real scalar field endowed with a quadratic potential that behaves…
We consider a five dimensional AdS spacetime with two 3-brane scenario where the hidden brane contains a certain amount of positive constant energy density. In this model, we examine the possibility of modulus stabilization. Our result…
In String Theory compactification, branes are often invoked to get the desired form of the radion effective potential. Current popular way of doing this assumes that the introduction of branes will not modify the background geometry in an…
We derive a general formalism for constructing a four-dimensional effective action for the radion field in 5 dimensions, taking into account the possible dependence of the scale factor on the internal coordinate. First and second variations…

We consider evolution of compact extra dimensions in cosmology and try to see whether wrapped branes can prevent the expansion of the internal space. Some difficulties of Brandenberger and Vafa mechanism for decompactification are pointed…
