We study a theory of dilaton gravity in a 5-dimensional brane scenario, with a non-minimal coupling of the dilaton to the matter content of the universe localized on the brane. The effective gravitational equations at the brane are derived…
The cosmological observation indicates that the effective equation of state parameter $w_{eff}$ varies with $z$: It changes from $w_{eff}>-1$ to $w_{eff}<-1$ at $z\sim 0.2$. We investigate under which condition it exhibits such behaviors…
We find exact solutions in five dimensional inhomogeneous matter dominated model with a varying cosmological constant. Adjusting arbitrary constants of integration one can also achieve acceleration in our model. Aside from an initial…
We construct the general model with only parallel positive tension 3-branes on $M^4 \times R^1$ and $M^4 \times R^1/Z_2$. The cosmology constant is sectional constant along the fifth dimension. In this general scenario, the 5-dimensional…
We study the cosmology of a 5-dimensional brane, which represents a regularization of a 4-dimensional codimension-2 brane, embedded in a conical bulk. The brane is assumed to be tensional, and to contain a curvature term. Cosmology is…
We study the value of cosmological constant in de Sitter brane embedded in five dimensions with positive, vanishing and negative bulk cosmological constant. In the case of negative bulk cosmological constant, we show that not zero but tiny…
A five-dimensional solution to Einstein's equations coupled to a scalar field has been proposed as a partial solution to the cosmological constant problem: the effect of arbitrary vacuum energy (tension) of a 3-brane is cancelled; however,…
We discuss the propagation of gravity in five-dimensional Minkowski space in the presence of a four-dimensional brane. We show that there exists a solution to the wave equation that leads to a propagator exhibiting four-dimensional behavior…
We consider maximally symmetric 3-branes embedded in a six-dimensional bulk spacetime with Lovelock dynamics. We study the properties of the solutions with respect to their induced curvature, their vacuum energy and their effective…
We consider the cosmology of the reduced 5D Horava-Witten M-Theory (HW) with volume modulus and treating matter on the orbifold planes to first order. It is seen that one can recover the FRW cosmology in the Hubble expansion era with…
The non-linear behaviour of Randall-Sundrum gravity with one brane is examined. Due to the non-compact extra dimension, the perturbation spectrum has no mass gap, and the long wavelength effective theory is only understood perturbatively.…
In this work, we construct a five-dimensional spherically-symmetric, charged and asymptotically Anti-de Sitter black hole with its singularity being point-like and strictly localised on our brane. In addition, the induced brane geometry is…
Warped compactification of the six-dimensional bulk with a negative cosmological constant is realized with a 4-brane along with an abelian gauge theory. No fine tuning of couplings are needed to obtain the vanishing cosmological constant in…
Modified Newtonian dynamics can be considered as an effect derived from a squeezable extra dimension space. The third law of Newtonian dynamics can be managed to remain valid in the 5-space. The critical acceleration parameter $a_0$ appears…
In the backdrop of generalised Randall-Sundrum braneworld scenario, we look for the possible origin of an effective four dimensional cosmological constant ($\Omega_{vis}$) on the visible 3-brane due to the effects of bulk curvature and the…
We explore observational constraints on a cosmological brane-world scenario in which the bulk is not empty. Rather, exchange of mass-energy between the bulk and the bane is allowed. The evolution of matter fields to an observer on the brane…
We consider the cosmology of a ``3-brane universe'' in a five dimensional (bulk) space-time with a cosmological constant. We show that Einstein's equations admit a first integral, analogous to the first Friedmann equation, which governs the…
We study linearized gravity in a six-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell model of warped braneworlds, where the extra dimensions are compactified by a magnetic flux. It is difficult to construct a strict codimension two braneworld with matter…
