S-Brane Solutions with Acceleration in Models with Forms and Multiple Exponential Potentials

Gravitation and Cosmology, 2004

A family of generalized S-brane solutions with orthogonal intersection rules and n Ricci-flat factor spaces in the theory with several scalar fields, antisymmetric forms and multiple scalar potential is considered. Two subclasses of solutions with power-law and exponential behaviour of scale factors are singled out. These subclasses contain sub-families of solutions with accelerated expansion of certain factor spaces. Some examples of solutions with exponential dependence of one scale factor and constant scale factors of "internal" spaces (e.g. Freund-Rubin type solutions) are also considered.

Electric S-brane solutions with parallel forms on a Ricci-flat factor space

Gravit Cosmol, 2006

In this paper we generalize electric S-brane solutions with maximal number of branes. Previously for the action containing D-dimensional gravity, a scalar field and antisymmetric (p+2)-form we found composite, electric S-brane solutions with all non-zero ``charge'' densities which obeyed self-duality or anti-self-duality relations. These solutions occurred when D = 4m+1 = 5, 9, 13, >... and p = 2m-1 = 1, 3, 5, ... Here we generalize these solutions to the case when the spatial 4m-dimensional submanifold is Ricci-flat rather than simply Euclidean-flat and the charge density form is a parallel self-dual or anti-self-dual form of rank 2m. Also generalizations are found for the case when there is an extra ``internal'' Ricci-flat manifold not covered by the S-branes. In the case when one allows a phantom scalar field a subset of these solutions lead to accelerated expansion of this extra spatial factor space not covered by the S-branes while the other spatial factor space of dimension 4m contracts. Some of these S-brane solutions also provide specific examples of solutions of type IIA supergravity.

Electric S-brane solutions with a parallel charge density form on a Ricci-flat factor space

2006

We generalize the previously studied cosmological solutions in D -dimensional gravity with an antisymmetric (p+2)form to the case when the spatial part of the metric is Ricci-flat rather than flat. These generalized solutions are characterized by a parallel self-dual or anti-self-dual charge density form Q of rank 2m and satisfy the condition Q 2 > 0 . As with the previous flat-space case, these electric, S-brane solutions only exist when D = 4m + 1 = 5, 9, 13, ... and p = 2m − 1 = 1, 3, 5, ... . We further generalize these solutions by adding Ricci-flat factor-spaces which are not covered by branes.

S-brane solutions with (anti-)self-dual parallel charge density form on a Ricci-flat submanifold

Gravitation and Cosmology, 2007

A D-dimensional cosmological model with several scalar fields and antisymmetric (p+2)-form is considered. For dimensions D = 4m+1 = 5, 9, 13, ... and p = 2m-1 = 1, 3, 5, ... we obtain a family of new cosmological type solutions with 4m-dimensional oriented Ricci-flat submanifold N of Euclidean signature. These solutions are characterized by a self-dual or anti-self-dual parallel charge density form Q of rank 2m defined on N. The (sub)manifold N may be chosen to be K\ddot{a}hler, or hyper-K\ddot{a}hler one, or 8-dimensional manifold of Spin(7) holonomy. The generalization of solutions to a chain of extra marginal) Ricci-flat factor-spaces is also presented. Solutions with accelerated expansion of extra factor-spaces are singled out. Certain examples of new solutions for IIA supergravity and for a chain of B_D-models in dimensions D = 14, 15, ... are considered.

Composite electric S-brane solutions with a maximum number of branes and several scalar fields

Gravit Cosmol, 2005

A (n+1)-dimensional cosmological model with a set of scalar fields and antisymmetric (p+2)-form is considered. Some of scalar fields may have negative kinetic terms, i.e. they may describe ``phantom'' fields. For certain odd dimensions (D = 4m+1 = 5, 9, 13, ...) and (p+2)-forms (p = 2m-1 = 1, 3, 5, ...) and non-exceptional dilatonic coupling vector veclambda\vec{\lambda}veclambda we obtain cosmological-type solutions to the field equations. These solutions are characterized by self-dual or anti-self-dual charge density forms Q (of rank 2m) and may describe the maximal set of branes (i.e. when all the branes have non-zero charge densities). Some properties of these solutions are considered, e.g. Kasner-like behavior, the existence of non-singular (e.g. bouncing) solutions and those with acceleration. The solutions with bouncing and acceleration take place when at least there is one ``phantom'' field in the model.

S-brane solutions in supergravity theories

Physical Review D, 2002

In this paper time dependent solutions of supergravities with dilaton and arbitrary rank antisymmetric tensor field are found. Although the solutions are nonsupersymmetric the equations of motions can be integrated in a simple form. Such supergravity solutions are related to Euclidean or spacelike branes (S-branes).

Exponential potentials on the brane

Physical Review D, 2003

In this paper we study the cosmological dynamics of Randall -Sundrum braneworld type scenarios in which the five -dimensional Weyl tensor has a non -vanishing projection onto the three -brane where matter fields are confined. Using dynamical systems techniques, we study how the state space of Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) and Bianchi type I scalar field models with an exponential potential is affected by the bulk Weyl tensor, focusing on the differences that appear with respect to standard general relativity and also Randall -Sundrum cosmological scenarios without the Weyl tensor contribution.

An S-brane solution with acceleration and small enough variation of G

arXiv: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology, 2007

An S-brane solution with two non-composite electric branes and a set of l scalar fields is considered. The intersection rule for branes corresponds to the Lie algebra A_2. The solution contains five factor spaces with the fifth one interpreted as ``our'' 3-dimensional space. It is shown that there exists a time interval where accelerating expansion of ``our'' 3-dimensional space is compatible with small enough value of effective gravitational ``constant'' variation.
