An SU(5) grand unification scheme for effective 3+1-dimensional fields dynamically localised on a domain-wall brane is constructed. This is achieved through the confluence of the clash-of-symmetries mechanism for symmetry breaking through…
We sketch an SU(5) bulk model in 4+1-dimensions that plausibly produces an effective 3+1-dimensional standard model dynamically-localized on a domain wall.
We construct domain-wall brane models based on the grand-unification group SO(10), generalising the SU(5) model of Davies, George and Volkas. Motivated by the Dvali-Shifman proposal for the dynamical localisation of gauge bosons, the SO(10)…
We construct an $SU(5)$ Grand Unified Theory on domain walls in the five-dimensional space-time. In this setup, we introduce an adjoint scalar field and a singlet that together form a set of five domain-wall solutions, realizing a dynamical…
We present a new Clash-of-Symmetries mechanism in the context of an intersecting domain-wall brane model in 5+1-dimensional Minkowskian spacetime recently proposed by the authors. This new application of the Dvali-Shifman idea is designed…
In the previous works (arXiv:1202.5375 and 1402.1346), the dynamical domain wall, where the four dimensional FRW universe is embedded in the five imensional space-time, has been realized by using two scalar fields. In this paper, we…
Combining the semi-classical localization mechanism for gauge fields with $N$ domain wall background in a simple $SU(N)$ gauge theory in five space-time dimensions we investigate the geometric Higgs mechanism, where a spontaneous breakdown…
We present a field theoretical model unifying grand unified theory (GUT) and brane world scenario. As a concrete example, we consider $SU(5)$ GUT in 4+1 dimensions where our 3+1 dimensional spacetime spontaneously arises on five domain…
We have recently proposed a setup of the "Domain-Wall Standard Model" in a non-compact 5-dimensional space-time, where all the Standard Model (SM) fields are localized in certain domains of the 5th dimension. While the SM is realized as a…
We study with lattice techniques the localisation of gauge fields on domain wall defects in 2+1 dimensions, following a scenario originally proposed by Dvali and Shifman for 3+1 dimensions, based on confining dynamics in the bulk. We find…
In the construction of a classical smoothed out brane world model in five dimensions, one uses a dynamically generated domain wall (a kink) to localise an effective four dimensional theory. At the level of the Euler-Lagrange equations the…
We propose an explicit model, where an axionic domain wall dynamically localizes a U(1)-component of a nonabelian gauge theory living in a 3+1 dimensional bulk. The effective theory on the wall is 2+1d Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory with a…
We construct a four-dimensional domain wall universe by using the Brans-Dicke type gravity with two scalar field. We give a formulation where for arbitrarily given warp factor and scale factor, we construct an action which reproduces both…
We propose a framework to construct "Domain-Wall Standard Model" in a non compact 5-dimensional space-time, where all the Standard Model (SM) fields are localized in certain domains of the 5th dimension and the SM is realized as a…
We propose a minimal and self-contained model in non-compact flat five dimensions which localizes the Standard Model (SM) on a domain wall. Localization of gauge fields is achieved by the condensation of Higgs field via a Higgs dependent…
We propose a dynamical mechanism of localization of gauge fields on a brane in which gauge bosons are excitations of the brane itself or composites made out of matter fields localized on the brane. The mechanism is operative for both…
Five-dimensional domain walls in gauged $SU(5)$ generate a position-dependent symmetry breaking pattern along the additional dimension. We analize the perturbative stability and the 4D spectrum of these walls in the self-gravitating case,…
We study brane cosmology as 4D (4-dimensional) domain wall dynamics in 5D bulk spacetime. For a generic 5D bulk with 3D maximal symmetry, we derive the equation of motion of a domain wall and find that it depends on mass function of the…
We discuss the gravitational Higgs mechanism in domain wall background solutions that arise in the theory of 5-dimensional Einstein-Hilbert gravity coupled to a scalar field with a non-trivial potential. The scalar fluctuations in such…
We argue that any viable mechanism of gauge field localization should automatically imply charge universality on the brane. We study whether this condition is satisfied in the two known proposals aimed to localize vector field in flat bulk…
