We show that a self-tuning mechanism of the cosmological constant could work in 5D non-compact space-time with a $Z_2$ symmetry in the presence of a massless scalar field. The standard model matter fields live only on the 4D brane. The…
We study some aspects of cosmologies in 5D models with one infinite extra dimension. Matter is confined to the brane, gravity extends to the bulk. Models with positive and negative tension of the brane are considered. Cosmological evolution…
General properties of intersecting extremal p-brane solutions of gravity coupled with dilatons and several different d-form fields in arbitrary space-time dimensions are considered. It is show that heuristically expected properties of the…
A new class of integrable theories of 0+1 and 1+1 dimensional dilaton gravity coupled to any number of scalar fields is introduced. These models are reducible to systems of independent Liouville equations whose solutions must satisfy the…
Mutidimensional cosmological models with $n\left( n\geq 2\right) $ Einstein spaces $M_i\left( i=1,\ldots ,n\right) $ are investigated. The cosmological constant and homogeneous minimally coupled scalar field as a matter sources are…
We derive the general form of the cosmological scalar field potential which is compatible both with the existence of black holes and p-branes related to string/M theory and with multidimensional inflationary cosmology. It is shown that the…
Five dimensional gravity coupled, both in the bulk and on a brane, to a scalar Liouville field yields a geometry confined to a strip around the brane and with time dependent scale factors for the four geometry. In various limits known…
A six-dimensional universe with two branes in the "football-shaped" geometry leads to an almost realistic cosmology. We describe a family of exact solutions with time dependent characteristic size of internal space. After a short…
We present the study of a two 3-branes system embedded in a 5-dimensional space-time in which the fifth dimension is compacted on a $S^{1}/Z_{2}$ orbifold and the space between the two branes is vacuum. Assuming isotropic and homogeneous…
We consider a $(4 + 2k)$ - dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet model with the cosmological $\Lambda$-term. Exact stable solutions with three constant Hubble-like parameters in this model are obtained. In this case, the multidimensional…
We construct p-brane solutions with non-trivial world volume metrics and show that applied to supergravity theories, they will lead to threshold BPS bound states of intersecting solutions. However applied to certain specific values of the…
In this work we consider Randall-Sundrum brane-world type scenarios, in which the spacetime is described by a five-dimensional manifold with matter fields confined in a domain wall or three-brane. We present the results of a systematic…
We study time-dependent compactification of extra dimensions. We assume that the spacetime is spatially homogeneous, and solve the vacuum Einstein equations without cosmological constant in more than three dimensions. We consider globally…
Scalar field theories with appropriate potentials in Minkowski space can have time-dependent classical solutions containing topological defects which correspond to S-branes - i.e. branes all of whose tangential dimensions are spacelike. It…
Numerical solutions of Einstein, scalar, and gauge field equations are found for static and inflating defects in a higher-dimensional spacetime. The defects have $(3+1)$-dimensional core and magnetic monopole configuration in $n=3$ extra…
It has been shown that four dimensional Brans-Dicke theory with effective matter field and self interacting potential can be achieved from vacuum 5D BD field equations, where we refer to as modified Brans-Dicke theory (MBDT). We investigate…
We study cosmological aspects of braneworld models with a warped dimension and an arbitrary number of compact dimensions. With a stabilized radion, a number of different cosmological bulk solutions are found in a general case. Both one and…
We discuss a scenario where at least part of the homogeneity on a brane world can be directly related to the hierarchy problem through warped space. We study the dynamics of an anti-D3-brane moving toward the infrared cut-off of a warped…
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 examine the issue of the cosmological constant in the $many$ $inflating$ branes scenario, extending on two recent models by I.Oda and Randall-Sundrum. The exact solution in a closed form is found in the slow roll approximation of the…
