Abstract

The DGP braneworld scenario explains accelerated expansion of the Universe via leakage of gravity to extra dimensions without any need for dark energy. We study the behavior of homogeneous and anisotropic cosmologies on a warped DGP brane with perfect fluid as a matter source. Taking a conformally flat bulk, we obtain the general solutions of the field equations in an exact parametric form for Bianchi type I space-time with a pressureless fluid. Finally, the behavior of the observationally important parameters like shear, anisotropy, and the deceleration parameter is considered in detail. We find that isotropization can proceed slower in the warped DGP model than the generalized Randall-Sundrum II model.
