The observable universe could be a 1+3-surface (the "brane") embedded in a 1+3+d-dimensional spacetime (the "bulk"), with standard-model particles and fields trapped on the brane while gravity is free to access the bulk.

Einstein and Rastall theories of gravitation in comparison
We profit by a recent paper of Visser claiming that Rastall gravity is equivalent to Einstein gravity to compare the two gravitational theories in a general way. Our conclusions are different from Visser’s ones.

$$f(\mathcal {G})$$ f(G) Noether cosmology
We develop the n-dimensional cosmology for $$f(\mathcal {G})$$ f(G) gravity, where $$\mathcal {G}$$ G is the Gauss–Bonnet topological invariant. Specifically, by the so-called Noether Symmetry Approach, we select $$f(\mathcal {G})\simeq \mathcal {G}^k ...

Vanishing Cosmological Constant in Modified Gauss-Bonnet Gravity with Conformal Anomaly [PDF]
We consider dark energy cosmology in a de Sitter universe filled with quantum conformal matter. Our model represents a Gauss-Bonnet model of gravity with contributions from quantum effects. To the General Relativity action an arbitrary function of the GB

The 1919 measurement of the deflection of light [PDF]
The measurement of the deflection of starlight during a total solar eclipse on May 29, 1919 was the first verification of general relativity by an external team of scientists, brought Einstein and his theory to the attention of the general public, and ...

It was recently shown that the homogeneous and isotropic cosmology of a massless scalar field coupled to general relativity exhibits a new hidden conformal invariance under Mobius transformation of the proper time, additionally to the invariance under ...

On the Green's function and iterative solutions of Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
Here we shall find the green's function of the difference equation of loop quantum cosmology. To illustrate how to use it, we shall obtain an iterative solution for closed model and evaluate its corresponding Bohmian trajectory.Comment: To appear in ...

Aspects of Cosmic Inflation in Expanding Bose-Einstein Condensates [PDF]
Phonons in expanding Bose-Einstein condensates with wavelengths much larger than the healing length behave in the same way as quantum fields within a universe undergoing an accelerated expansion. This analogy facilitates the application of many tools and

Editorial: Loop Quantum Cosmology
Loop Quantum Cosmology is the application to cosmology of the nonperturbative canonical quantization program of General Relativity provided by Loop Quantum Gravity. This has been an active field of investigation for more than 20 years.
