Quantum gravity of a brane-like Universe is formulated, and its Einstein limit is approached. Regge-Teitelboim embedding of Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formalism is carried out. Invoking a novel Lagrange multiplier, accompanying the lapse…
It is shown that Einstein's equations on the brane can be received from the multi-dimensional vector field equations in pseudo-Euclidean space. The idea is based on the observation that the brane geometry can be equivalently described by…
Theory of gravity is considered in the Regge-Teitelboim approach in which the pseudo-Riemannian space is treated as a surface isometrically embedded in an ambient Minkowski space of higher dimension. This approach is formulated in terms of…
We discuss qualitative features of the conformal relation between certain classes of gravity theories and general relativity, common to different themes such as $f(R)$, Brans-Dicke-type, and string theories. We focus primarily on the frame…
D-branes are by now an integral part of our toolbox towards understanding nature. In this review we will describe recent progress in their use to realize fundamental interactions. The realization of the Standard Model and relevant physics…
A short review of recent results of authors on sigma-model approach in multidimensional gravity with p-branes is presented.
The aim of this paper is to show further results following those published in [5], and to relate the Riemann zeta function to the relativistic cosmology.
This PhD thesis explores and combines, through the lens of the holographic correspondence, two relevant topics in the field of gravitational high-energy theory: higher-derivative theories of gravity and brane-world models.
The first part of this lecture quickly touches upon some important but infrequently discussed issues in large extra dimension and warped extra dimension scenarios, with particular reference to effects in the early universe. The second part…
A review of strong gravitational lensing and its astrophysical uses.
We consider brane cosmologies within the context of five-dimensional actions with O(a') higher curvature corrections. The actions are compatible with bulk string amplitude calculations from heterotic string theory. We find wrapped solutions…
Tensionless null p-branes in arbitrary cosmological backgrounds are considered and their motion equations are solved. It is shown that an ideal fluid of null p-branes may be considered as a source of gravity for D-dimensional Friedmann-…
