Abstract.
We develop a 5D mechanism, inspired by Campbell’s theorem, to explain the (neutral scalar field governed) evolution of the universe from an initially inflationary expansion that has a change of phase towards a decelerated expansion and thereafter evolves towards the present day observed accelerated (quintessential) expansion.
