We provide the cosmological solutions for Randall-Sundrum models with the bulk energy-momentum $\hat T^5_5$ incorporated. It alters the Friedmann equation for the brane scale factor. We make a specific choice of $\hat T^5_5$ which is…
We consider the evolution of a 4D-universe embedded in a five-dimensional (bulk) world with a large extra dimension and a cosmological constant. The cosmology in 5D possesses "wave-like" character in the sense that the metric coefficients…
Gauge theories formulated in a space-time manifold that includes compact extra dimensions can show a nontrivial gauge structure. Depending on whether the gauge parameters propagate or not in the extra dimensions, two different Kaluza--Klein…
We examine the effect on cosmological evolution of adding a Gauss-Bonnet term to the standard Einstein-Hilbert action for a (1 + 3)+ d dimensional Friedman-Robertson-Walker (FRW) metric. By assuming that the additional dimensions compactify…
Models with extra dimensions have changed our understanding of the hierarchy problem. In general, these models explain the weakness of gravity by diluting gravity in a large bulk volume, or by localizing the graviton away from the standard…
We present a simple gedanken experiment in which a compact object traverses a spacetime with three macroscopic spatial dimensions and $n$ compact dimensions. The compactification radius is allowed to vary, as a function of the object's…

We use the Gu-Huang model for a special case when the universe is seven dimensional. In the core of extra dimension we place a modified Gidding-Strominger wormhole. This wormhole is separated by a thin wall from the extra dimensional space.…
The hypothesis of quantum nonequilibrium at the big bang is shown to have observable consequences. For a scalar field on expanding space, we show that relaxation to quantum equilibrium (in de Broglie-Bohm theory) is suppressed for field…

This paper contains a discussion on the quantum cosmic models, starting with the interpretation that all of the accelerating effects in the current universe are originated from the existence of a nonzero entropy of entanglement. In such a…
