Brane Cosmology with Matter in the Bulk. I

We derive exact solutions of the Einstein equations in the context of the Randall-Sundrum model with matter both on the brane and in the bulk. The bulk metric is a generalization of the static metrics describing the interior of stellar objects. We study the cosmological evolution on the brane. Our solutions describe energy ouflow from the brane, and the appearance of ``mirage'' contributions to the Hubble expansion that alter the standard cosmological evolution.
