Can Inflating Braneworlds be Stabilized?
Andrei V. Frolov, Lev Kofman
We investigate scalar perturbations from inflation in braneworld cosmologies with extra dimensions. For this we calculate scalar metric fluctuations around five dimensional warped…
Braneworld dynamics with the BraneCode
Johannes Martin, Gary N. Felder, Andrei V. Frolov +2
We give a full nonlinear numerical treatment of time-dependent 5d braneworld geometry, which is determined self-consistently by potentials for the scalar field in the bulk and at t…
Probing String Theory with Modulated Cosmological Fluctuations
Lev Kofman
Superstring theory, models with extra dimensions and other SUSY models generically predict that the coupling constants are in fact vacuum expectation values of fields like the dila…
Suppressing the lower Multipoles in the CMB Anisotropies
Carlo R. Contaldi, Marco Peloso, Lev Kofman +1
The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy power on the largest angular scales observed both by WMAP and COBE DMR appears to be lower than the one predicted by the standard m…
