Prospects of inflation in delicate D-brane cosmology

S Panda, M Sami, S Tsujikawa - … Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2007 - APS
We study D-brane inflation in a warped conifold background that includes brane-position
dependent corrections for the nonperturbative superpotential. Instead of stabilizing the …

Dynamics of a scalar field in Robertson-Walker spacetimes

EJ Copeland, S Mizuno, M Shaeri - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2009 - APS
We analyze the dynamics of a single scalar field in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universes
with spatial curvature. We obtain the fixed point solutions which are shown to be late time …

Cosmological dynamics of a Dirac-Born-Infeld field

EJ Copeland, S Mizuno, M Shaeri - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2010 - APS
We analyze the dynamics of a Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) field in a cosmological setup which
includes a perfect fluid. Introducing convenient dynamical variables, we show that the …

Inflation with improved D3-brane potential and the fine tunings associated with the model

A Ali, A Deshamukhya, S Panda, M Sami - The European Physical Journal …, 2011 - Springer
We revisit our earlier investigations of the brane–antibrane inflation in a warped deformed
conifold background, reported in Phys. Lett. B 674, 131 (2009), where now we include the …

[HTML][HTML] Prospects of inflation with perturbed throat geometry

A Ali, R Chingangbam, S Panda, M Sami - Physics Letters B, 2009 - Elsevier
We study brane inflation in a warped deformed conifold background that includes general
possible corrections to the throat geometry sourced by coupling to the bulk of a compact …

Quintessence and phantom dark energy from ghost -branes

EN Saridakis, J Ward - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2009 - APS
We present a novel dark-energy candidate, based upon the existence and dynamics of
ghost D-branes in a warped compactification of type IIB string theory. G p-branes cancel the …

Geometrical tachyon dynamics in the background of a bulk tachyon field

E Papantonopoulos, I Pappa… - Journal of High Energy …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the dynamics of a D3-brane moving in the background of a bulk tachyon field of a
D3-brane solution of Type-0 string theory. We show that the dynamics on the probe D3 …

Non abelian geometrical tachyon

V Calo, G Tallarita, S Thomas - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2010 - Springer
We investigate the dynamics of a pair of coincident D5 branes in the background of k NS5
branes. It has been proposed by Kutasov that the system with a single probing D-brane …

Dynamics of tachyon field in spatially curved FRW universe

JL Li, JP Wu - Physics Letters B, 2010 - Elsevier
The dynamics of a tachyon field plus a barotropic fluid is investigated in spatially curved
FRW universe. We perform a phase-plane analysis and obtain scaling solutions …

Black hole-string transition and rolling D-brane

We investigate the black hole-string transition in the two-dimensional Lorentzian black hole
system from the exact boundary states that describe the rolling D-brane falling down into the …
