Summary:We study the possibility that Universe is subjected to a deformation, besides its expansion described by Friedmann's equations. The concept of smooth deformation of a riemannian manifold associated with the extrinsic curvature is applied to the standard Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker cosmology. Starting from the resulting modified Friedman's equation we study two possible solutions with six models for each one in low redshift. In order to constrain the models, we calculate the main cosmic parameters (Hubble parameter H(z), deceleration parameter q(z) and jerk parameter j(z)) compared with different data sets as the latest Baryons Acoustic Oscillations/Cosmic Microwave Background + SNla constraints, SuperNova Legacy Survey Type Ia supernova (SNIa), X-ray galaxy clusters and the gold sample (SNIa). As a result, we obtain a set of proper models compatible with the current observational data.
