Abstract

We study the late-time cosmological viability of the solutions in the DGP braneworld scenario. We consider a quintessence field trapped on the normal branch of the DGP model and we suppose this scalar field is both minimally and non-minimally coupled to induced gravity on the brane. Since a successful cosmological model should therefore admit for a sequence of epochs: a radiation era, a sufficiently long matter dominated era and a final stable positively accelerated scaling solution, we analyze the cosmological properties of system in its critical points.
