Cosmology of Dilatonic Brane World

arXiv:hep-th/0012246 · doi:10.1142/S0217732301004169

Abstract

We study cosmological solutions in the dilatonic brane world models. The effective four-dimensional equations on the brane are analyzed for the models with one positive tension brane and two branes with tensions of opposite signs. Just as in the non-dilatonic brane case, the conventional Friedmann equations of the four-dimensional universe are reproduced to the leading order in matter energy density for the model with one brane and the introduction of a radion potential is required in order to reproduce the Friedmann equations with the correct sign for the model with two branes.
