Abstract

The Little Randall-Sundrum (Little RS) model receives significantly stronger constraints from the flavour observables in comparison to Randall-Sundrum (RS) model. In this paper, we analyse the effect of the electro-weak sector in Little RS on flavour changing decays of charged leptons. We compare the predictions of the model with the current limits on the flavour violating Branching Ratios of μeee\mu \rightarrow e e e , τeee\tau \rightarrow e e e , τμμμ\tau \rightarrow \mu \mu \mu , τμee\tau \rightarrow \mu e e , τeμμ\tau \rightarrow e \mu \mu , μeγ\mu \rightarrow e \gamma , and μTieTi\mu Ti \rightarrow e Ti . And we show that the dominant constraint arises from the μTieTi\mu Ti \rightarrow e Ti process which strongly limits the KK-1 gauge boson mass (MKKM_{KK}) to be 30.7TeV\gtrsim 30.7 TeV . We then derive and show that generalising the electro-weak gauge sector to include the Brane Localised Kinetic Term (BLKT) relaxes this constraint to 12TeV\gtrsim 12 TeV. Towards the conclusion, we comment on the possibility that the large flavour violating currents can be mitigated by relaxing the assumption regarding the unnatural thinness and rigidity of the UV-brane and discuss the possibility of suppression of these currents in presence of fat fluctuating branes.
