Brane world cosmology with Gauss-Bonnet interaction

Year: 2002

Type: article

Abstract: We study a Randall-Sundrum model modified by a Gauss-Bonnet interaction term. We consider, in particular, a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metric on the brane and analyze the resulting cosmological scenario. It is shown that the usual Friedmann equations are recovered on the brane. The equation of state relating the energy density and the pressure is uniquely determined by the matching conditions. A cosmological solution with negative pressure is found.
