On some cosmological models with fields of forms (Q1576075)

This paper is quite in line with the current fashion of making up fundamental theories with more complication and less physical justification. Here one has an action which includes a higher dimensional Riemann scalar density, a cosmological term, a term involving a dilatonic scalar field, and a term containing numbers of antisymmetric forms on a collection of manifolds. Various classical solutions are obtained corresponding to different \(p\)-brane configurations. Quantum solutions to the Wheeler-De Witt equation are also obtained and applied to cosmological models.
