In view of our accelerating universe, one of the outstanding theoretical issues is the absence of a quantum-gravitational description of de Sitter space. Although speculative, an intriguing circumvention may be found in the realm of…
We address the localization of gravity on the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker type brane embedded in either $AdS_{5}$ or $dS_{5}$ bulk space,and derive two definite limits between which the value of the bulk cosmological constant has to lie in…
We derive exact gravitational fields of a black hole and a relativistic particle stuck on a codimension-2 brane in $D$ dimensions when gravity is ruled by the bulk $D$-dimensional Einstein-Hilbert action. The black hole is locally the…
Partial reduction is a Randall-Sundrum reduction for only part of the AdS region between finite tension brane and zero tension brane. This is interesting in AdS/BCFT where the AdS bulk contains a defect brane. We employ partial reduction…
We consider a brane universe in an asymptotically de Sitter background spacetime of arbitrary dimensionality. In particular, the bulk spacetime is described by a ``topological de Sitter'' solution, which has recently been investigated by…
A treatment of linearized gravity is given in the Randall-Sundrum background. The graviton propagator is found in terms of the scalar propagator, for which an explicit integral expression is provided. This reduces to the four-dimensional…
Within the framework of geodetic brane gravity, the Universe is described as a 4-dimensional extended object evolving geodetically in a higher dimensional flat background. In this paper, by introducing a new pair of canonical fields…

We consider brane-world models with a Schwarzschild-AdS black hole bulk. In the particular case of a flat black hole horizon geometry, we study the behaviour of the brane cosmological equations when T-duality transformations act on the…
We study the slow-roll inflationary dynamics in a self-gravitating induced gravity braneworld model with bulk cosmological constant. For E \gg M_{5}^{3}/M^{2}_{2} we find important corrections to the four-dimensional Friedmann equation…
In this paper, we have considered gravity in a 5-dimensional warped product space-time with a time-dependent warp factor, time-dependent extra dimension and a bulk cosmological constant. The braneworld is described by a spatially flat…
Four-dimensional cosmological models are studied on a boundary of a five-dimensional Anti-de Sitter (AdS_5) black hole with AdS Reissner-Nordstrom and scalar charged Reissner- Nordstrom black hole solutions, where we call the former a…
We use a new, exact approach in calculating the energy density measured by an observer living on a brane embedded in a charged black hole spacetime. We find that the bulk Weyl tensor gives rise to non-linear terms in the energy density and…
The creation of 4d de Sitter (inflationary) boundary gluing two d5 de Sitter bulks on the classical as well as on quantum level (with account of brane QFT via corresponding trace anomaly induced effective action) is discussed. Quantum…
Cosmological perturbations in the brane-world cosmology with a positive tension brane in the AdS background bulk geometry is analyzed by using the doubly gauge-invariant formalism. We derive four independent equations for scalar…
A brane-world universe consists of a 4-dimensional brane embedded into a 5-dimensional space-time (bulk). We apply the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner decomposition to the brane-world, which results in a 3+1+1 break-up of the bulk. We present the…
In the framework of a general scalar-tensor theory, where the scalar field is non-minimally coupled to the five-dimensional Ricci scalar curvature, we investigate the emergence of complete brane-world solutions. By assuming a variety of…
We study some aspects of cosmology in a five-dimensional model with matter, radiation and cosmological constant on the four-dimensional brane(s) and without matter in the bulk. The action of the model does not contain explicit curvature…
We construct a bulk spacetime from a boundary CFT, $O(N)$ free scalar model, at finite temperature using a smearing technique, called a conformal flow. The bulk metric is constructed as an information metric associated with the boundary…
We study the cosmological evolution with nonsingular branes generated by a bulk scalar field coupled to gravity. The specific setup investigated leads to branes with a time-dependent warp factor. We calculate the effective Hubble parameter…
