Standard Cosmology in the DGP Brane Model

High Energy Physics - Theory 2014-11-18 v2

Abstract

Large extra dimensions provide interesting extensions of our parameter space for gravitational theories. There exist now brane models which can perfectly reproduce standard four-dimensional Friedmann cosmology. These models are not motivated by observations, but they can be helpful in developing new approaches to the dimensionality problem in string theory. I describe the embedding of standard Friedmann cosmology in the DGP model, and in particular the realization of our current (dust+Lambda)-dominated universe in this model.
