The Interface of Cosmology with String and M(ILLENNIUM) Theory
read the original abstract
The purpose of this review is to discuss recent developments occurring at the interface of cosmology with string and M-theory. We begin with a short review of 1980s string cosmology and the Brandenberger-Vafa mechanism for explaining spacetime dimensionality. It is shown how this scenario has been modified to include the effects of p-brane gases in the early universe. We then introduce the Pre-Big-Bang scenario (PBB), Ho\v{r}ava-Witten heterotic M-theory and the work of Lukas, Ovrut and Waldram, and end with a discussion of large extra dimensions, the Randall-Sundrum model and Brane World cosmologies.
