This book provides an extensive survey of all the physics necessary to understand the current developments in the field of fundamental cosmology, as well as an overview ofthe observational data and methods. It will help students to get into research by providingdefinitions and main techniques and ideas discussed today. The book is divided into threeparts. Part 1 summarises the fundamentals in theoretical physics needed in cosmology(general relativity, field theory, particle physics). Part 2 describes the standard model ofcosmology and includes cosmological solutions of Einstein equations, the hot big bangmodel, cosmological perturbation theory, cosmic microwave background anisotropies,lensing and evidence for dark matter, and inflation. Part 3 describes extensions of thismodel and opens up current research in the field: scalar-tensor theories, supersymmetry,the cosmological constant problem and acceleration of the universe, topology of the universe, grand unification and baryogenesis, topological defects and phase transitions,string inspired cosmology including branes and the latest developments. The book provides details of all derivations and leads the student up to the level of research articles.

Patrick Peter and Jean-Philippe Uzan are at the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris, France.

‘Fills a niche that other recent cosmology texts leave open, namely self-contained derivations in cosmology that span both fundamental issues and applications to the realuniverse that are of great interest to observers.’ Joseph Silk, University of Oxford

‘A remarkable book. Written with great authority and enthusiasm, it gives a comprehensiveview of primordial cosmology today. The style is accessible to a novice for a good introduction, as well as being technically precise enough to be useful for specialists.’

Fig. 1. Space-time diagram (sketch) showing the evolution of scales in inflationarycosmology. The vertical axis is time, and the period of inflation lasts between ti andtR, and is followed by the radiation-dominated phase of standard big bang cosmol-ogy. During exponential inflation, the Hubble radius H

!1 is constant in physicalspatial coordinates (the horizontal axis), whereas it increases linearly in time aftertR. The physical length corresponding to a fixed comoving length scale labelled byits wavenumber k increases exponentially during inflation but increases less fast thanthe Hubble radius (namely as t

1/2), after inflation.

FIG. 1: Schematic representation of the old ekpyrotic modelas a bulk – boundary branes in an e!ective five dimensionaltheory. Our Universe is to be identified with the visible brane,and a bulk brane is spontaneously nucleated near the hiddenbrane, moving towards our universe to produce the Big-Bangsingularity and primordial perturbations. In the new ekpy-rotic scenario, the bulk brane is absent and it is the hiddenbrane that collides with the visible one, generating the hotBig Bang singularity.

In the “old” scenario [8], the five dimensional bulk isalso assumed to contain various fields not described here,whose excitations can lead to the spontaneous nucleationof yet another, much lighter, freely moving, brane. Inthe so-called “new” scenario [9], and its cyclic exten-sion [23], it is the hidden boundary brane that is ableto move in the bulk. In both cases, this extra brane, ifassumed BPS (as demanded by minimization of the ac-tion) is flat, parallel to the boundary branes and initially

at rest. Non perturbative e!ects yield an interaction po-tential between the visible and the bulk brane. The dis-tance of the former to the latter can be regarded as ascalar field living on the four dimensional visible bound-ary brane whose e!ective action is thus that of four di-mensional GR together with a scalar field " evolving inan exponential potential, namely

. Apartfrom the sign, the potential is the one that leads to thewell known power-law inflation model if the value of &lies in a given range [24].

The interaction between the two branes results in one(bulk or hidden) brane moving towards the other (vis-ible) boundary until they collide. This impact time isthen identified with the Big-Bang of standard cosmol-ogy. Slightly before that time, the exponential potentialabruptly goes to zero so the boundary brane is led to asingular transition at which the kinetic energy of the bulkbrane is converted into radiation. The result is, from thispoint on, exactly similar to standard big bang cosmology,with the di!erence that the flatness problem is claimedto be solved by saying our Universe originated as a BPSstate (see however [23]).

FIG. 2: Scale factor in the new ekpyrotic scenario. TheUniverse starts its evolution with a slow contraction phasea ! ("!)1+! with " = "0.9 on the figure. The bounce itselfis explicitly associated with a singularity which is approachedby the scalar field kinetic term domination phase, and theexpansion then connects to the standard Big-Bang radiationdominated phase.

FIG. 1: Schematic representation of the old ekpyrotic modelas a bulk – boundary branes in an e!ective five dimensionaltheory. Our Universe is to be identified with the visible brane,and a bulk brane is spontaneously nucleated near the hiddenbrane, moving towards our universe to produce the Big-Bangsingularity and primordial perturbations. In the new ekpy-rotic scenario, the bulk brane is absent and it is the hiddenbrane that collides with the visible one, generating the hotBig Bang singularity.

In the “old” scenario [8], the five dimensional bulk isalso assumed to contain various fields not described here,whose excitations can lead to the spontaneous nucleationof yet another, much lighter, freely moving, brane. Inthe so-called “new” scenario [9], and its cyclic exten-sion [23], it is the hidden boundary brane that is ableto move in the bulk. In both cases, this extra brane, ifassumed BPS (as demanded by minimization of the ac-tion) is flat, parallel to the boundary branes and initially

at rest. Non perturbative e!ects yield an interaction po-tential between the visible and the bulk brane. The dis-tance of the former to the latter can be regarded as ascalar field living on the four dimensional visible bound-ary brane whose e!ective action is thus that of four di-mensional GR together with a scalar field " evolving inan exponential potential, namely

The solution (23) can be obtained for other initial wavefunctions (see Ref. [8]).

The Bohmian quantum trajectory a(T ) can be usedin Eq. (16). Indeed, since one can view a(T ) as a func-tion of T , it is possible to implement the time dependentcanonical transformation generated by

This is the most simple form of the Schrodinger equa-tion which governs scalar perturbations in a quantumminisuperspace model with fluid matter source. The cor-responding time evolution equation for the operator v inthe Heisenberg picture is given by

where a prime means derivative with respect to confor-mal time. In terms of the normal modes vk, the aboveequation reads

These equations have the same form as the equations forscalar perturbations obtained in Ref. [1]. This is quitenatural since for a single fluid with constant equation ofstate &, the pump function z""/z obtained in Ref. [1] isexactly equal to a""/a obtained here. The di"erence isthat the function a(#) is no longer a classical solutionof the background equations but a quantum Bohmiantrajectory of the quantized background, which may leadto di"erent power spectra.
