Current and future supernova constraints on decaying cosmologies
J. S. Alcaniz, J. M. F. Maia
We investigate observational constraints from present and future supernova data on a large class of decaying vacuum cosmologies. In such scenarios the present value of the vacuum e…

The accelerating universe in brane-world cosmology
M. D. Maia, Edmundo M. Monte, J. M. F. Maia
The standard Friedmann universe embedded in a five dimensional and constant curvature bulk is examined without any a priori junction condition between the brane and the bulk. A geo…

Scalar field description of decaying- cosmologies
J. M. F. Maia, J. A. S. Lima
The conditions under which cosmologies driven by time varying cosmological terms can be described by a scalar field coupled to a perfect fluid are discussed. An algorithm to recons…
