Abstract
We prove the no-go theorem that the gravivector and graviscalar cannot have any on-shell propagation on the Randall-Sundrum (RS) brane. For this purpose, we analyze all of their linearized equations with the de Donder gauge (5D transverse-tracefree gauge). But we do not introduce any matter source. We use the Z-symmetry argument and their () compatibility conditions with the tensor -equation. It turns out that does not have any bulk (massive) and brane (massless) propagations. Although has a sort of massive propagations, they do not belong to the physical solution. Hence we confirm that the Randall-Sundrum gauge suffices the on-shell brane physics.
