Cosmological Results and Implications in Effective DGP

We study a simple extension of the decoupling limit of boundary effctive actions for the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati model, by covariantizing the π lagrangian and coupling to gravity in the usual way. This extension agrees with DGP to leading order in Mpl^−1 , and simplifies the cosmological analysis. I...
