We generalize the fractal bubble model (FB), recently proposed in the literature as an alternative to the standard $\Lambda$CDM cosmology, to include a non-zero cosmological constant. We retain the same volume partition of voids and walls…
In brane-world theory in five dimensions, the bulk metric is usually written in gaussian coordinates, where $g_{4\mu} = 0$ and $g_{44} = - 1$. However, the choice $g_{44} = - 1$ is an external condition, not a requirement of the field…
