We show that the Lagrangian of a Nambu-Goto $p$-brane satisfies the identity $\mathcal{L}_{\rm [\it p \rm]}=T_{\rm [\it p \rm]}/(p+1)$, with $T_{\rm [\it p \rm]}$ denoting the trace of the corresponding energy-momentum tensor, independently…

A cosmological scenario with two branes (A and B) moving in a 5-dimensional bulk is considered. As in the case of ecpyrotic and born-again braneworld models it is possible that the branes collide. The energy-momentum tensor is taken to…
The motion of a test Dq-brane in a Dp-brane background is studied. The induced metric on the test brane is then interpreted as the cosmology of the test brane universe. One is then able to resolve the resulting cosmological singularities.…
