1 Brane in the Relativistic Theory of Gravitation arxiv:gr-qc/0009v Jan 00 Ramy Naboulsi March 0, 008 Tokyo Institute of Technology, Department of Physics, O-Okoyama, Meguro-ku, Tokyo Abstract It was proven that Logunov RTG predicts a cyclic Universe with no singularities. It is shown in this paper that an additional exotic density term will not affect this important characteristic of the Universe evolution. We assume that this later varies with time according to the law m Ṙ R. The graviton mass and the density term are of order of Hubble s constant. The classical Einstein s cosmological parameter is excluded to converse the logical structure of the RTG. The age of the Universe and the deceleration parameter agree with recent observational data from BOOMERANG, MAXIMA and COBE. -Introduction: Basic Propositions of RTG In this paragraph, we will review briefly the basic propositions and assumptions of RTG[]. a)-in RTG, Minkowski space is the fundamental space for all physical fields. The Special Theory of Relativity (STR) was assumed to play the major role in the construction of RTG. The Faraday-Maxwell physical gravitational field in Minkowski space is introduced which allows the notion of an energy-momentum tensor of the gravitational field to be used.this means that the gravitational field could be localize. The gravitational field in GTR is characterized by the curvature tensor alone. While in GTR, the gravitational field is characterized by both the curvature and the 4-vector of force. The RTG denies the total geometrization. b)-the gravitational field is described by a real physical field with energy-momentum density and the rest mass m and a polarization states corresponding to spin and 0, that is a symmetric second rank tensor φ µν constraints to the condition D µ φ µν = 0 where D µ is the covariant

2 derivative in the Minkowski space. c)- The field φ µν is related to the Minkowski space metric γ µν via the Lagrangian density of matter according to the following rule L M ( γ µν, φ matter ) L M ( g µν, φ matter ) where g µν = γ µν + φ µν, ã µν = ga µν, a = g, γ, φ. d)-the effective Riemannian space is produced by φ µν in the Minkowski space. This means that complicated topology are excluded from RTG. e)-the total Lagrangian density of matter and gravitational field is: L = 6π gµν (G λ µνg σ λσ G λ µσg σ νλ) m 6π ( γ µν g µν g γ) + L matter ( g µν, φ matter ) () where G λ µν = gλσ (D µ g σν +D ν g σµ D σ g µν ) and m is the graviton mass. The gravitational field is defined by the ten components of the tensor φ µν. δl Using the last action principles δ g µν = 0 and δlmatter δφ µν = 0, and the equation λ T λµ = 0, where λ is the covariant derivative, the complete system of field equations could be derived: R µν gµν R + m [g µν + (g µν g νβ gνβ g αβ )γ αβ ] = 8π g T µν () D µ g µν = 0 () Recently Randall and Sundrum have proposed two models in which our universe is a threebrane imbedded in a five-dimensional anti-de-sitter AdS 5 as a possible solution to the heirarchy problem between weak and Planck scales [,]. In contrast with the Kaluza-Klein approach, their models are based on the idea that standard model fields could be confined to a three-dimensional world, corresponding to our apparent Universe, while gravity belongs to a higher dimensional space. Two important questions arise concerning first the validity of these models with respect to the cosmological evolution of the Universe and second their agreements with recent observations. Due to the fact that the energy density of the brane is quadratic in the brane Friedmann equations, under minimal conditions, the equations governing the cosmological evolution of the brane are different from those derived in standard cosmology [4]. In a recent paper [5], we shown show that the brane-friedmann equations are identical to those derived in the standard 4D hot Big-Bang model but with an additional density term playing the role of the gravitino-density. In other words, we supposed that the total density is in fact the sum of the ordinary matter and exotic one in the form ρ = ρ matter + ρ exotic where ρ exotic = m, m being a constant having the 8πG

3 dimensions of time. In this paper we will take into consideration two points In RTG, the insertion of the cosmological term into the field equations () kills its physical and mathematical logic and structure, because the additional repulsing physical field is not affected by the presence of matter.so, we will reject the possibility of adding a cosmological constant to equation (). We will admit only the presence of adding a cosmological constant to equation ().We will restrict ourselves only to the presence of the mass term or density perturbation. Equation () takes the following form: R µν gµν R + m -Cosmological Implications [ g µν + (g µν g νβ ) ] gµν g αβ γ αβ = 8πG [( p + ρ + m ) ] g u µ u ν + pg µν g 8π Let us start by considering the standard FRW flat metric: ds = dτ R(t) dr + r (dθ + sin θdφ ) (5) where τ is the proper time and R(t) is the scaling factor.in the standard Big Bang cosmology, there are a lot indications that the Einstein s classical constant Λ decrease with time. It was shown that our mass term m is of the same order of Λ[]. So it will be evident to impose that m varies with respect to time according to the law m = β Ṙ where β is a parameter of order R of unity but less than one.using equation (4), the dynamical equations are: β)ṙ ( R = 8πGρ ( m ) ( + ) 6 R R R R = 4πG m (ρ + P) ( m ) (7) 6 R 6 It is quite clear that the evolution of the Universe is determined by equations (6) and (7) with no singularities. Assuming that to first order ρ(τ) R, it follows from these equations that for a matter dominated stage of the Universe, P = 0, R(τ) sin ( m τ ) ( β) (4) (6) (8)

4 which represents a cyclic Universe with no begining and no end.simple calculations gives us the deceleration parameter, the graviton mass and the age of the Universe as follows: m = π (q 0 β)h 0 (9) q 0 = m 4H 0 t 0 = β H 0 q 0 β It is clear that for β = 0 and (absence of our mass term), we fall into the classical Logunov model. In order to have m H 0, we need q 0 = β The following table resumes some of the numerical data calculated from equations (9),(0) and(): β q H 0 t m H 0 H 0 H 0 H 0 H 0 m 0.57H 0 0.7H 0 0.8H H 0 H 0 According to BOOMRANG, MAXIMA and COBE [6,7,8], q 0 = 0. ± 0.7. The value 0.9 for β seems in agreement with observations. In Logunov model, one finds q 0 4. which rules out of observations. -Conclusion It is shown that the usual cosmological solutions in RTG do not agree with the modern observational data. In this paper, we have shown that the presence of our mass term as a perturbation density parameter and its variations with time according to the rule m Ṙ gives R rise to a cyclic Universe where the cosmological parameters are in agreement with recent observations.detailed studies and further inquiries of this model will be studied in further publication. 4-References [] A.A.
