Can a late-time cosmological model based on baby universe absorption explain the z-variation of w?
Abstract
We point out that a simple late-time cosmological model where our Universe can absorb "baby universes" explains the exponential expansion of our universe without the need of a cosmological constant and leads to a z-dependence of the parameter w(z) in the equation of state. In this model w(z) is less than -1 for z sufficiently large.
