Post-inflationary brane cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The brane cosmology has invoked new challenges to the usual Big Bang cosmology. In this paper we present a brief account on thermal history of the post-inflationary brane cosmology. We have realized that it is not obvious that the post-inflationary brane

Holography and cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 1999
We consider a recent generalisation by Bousso of an earlier holography proposal by Fischler and Susskind. We demonstrate that in general inhomogeneous universes such a proposal would involve extremely complicated - possibly fractal - light sheets. Furthermore, in general such a light sheet cannot be known a priori on the basis of theory and moreover ...

Isochronous cosmologies [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2014
The possibility has been recently demonstrated to manufacture (nonrelativistic, Hamiltonian) many-body problems which feature an isochronous time evolution with an arbitrarily assigned period T yet mimic with good approximation, or even exactly, any given many-body problem (within a large, physically relevant, class) over times [Formula: see text ...

Emergent cosmology from matrix theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
Matrix theory is a proposed non-perturbative definition of superstring theory in which space is emergent. We begin a study of cosmology in the context of matrix theory.

Brane-world cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Brane-world models, where observers are restricted to a brane in a higher-dimensional spacetime, offer a novel perspective on cosmology. I discuss some approaches to cosmology in extra dimensions and some interesting aspects of gravity and cosmology in ...

Topics in Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
These lectures present a brief review of inflationary cosmology, provide an overview of the theory of cosmological perturbations, and then focus on the conceptual problems of the current paradigm of early universe cosmology, thus motivating an ...

Nonlocal Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2007
We explore nonlocally modified models of gravity, inspired by quantum loop corrections, as a mechanism for explaining current cosmic acceleration. These theories enjoy two major advantages: they allow a delayed response to cosmic events, here the transition from radiation to matter dominance, and they avoid the usual level of fine tuning; instead ...

Neutrinos in cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2004
I review the basics of neutrino cosmology, from the question of neutrino decoupling and the presence of sterile neutrinos to the effects of neutrinos on the cosmic microwave background and large scale structure. Particular emphasis is put on cosmological neutrino mass measurements, both the present bounds and the future prospects.

Cosmological complexity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2020
We compute the quantum circuit complexity of the evolution of scalar curvature perturbations on expanding backgrounds, using the language of squeezed vacuum states. In particular, we construct a simple cosmological model consisting of an early-time period of de Sitter expansion followed by a radiation-dominated era and track the evolution of complexity
