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…
We examine some of the implications of the field-theoretical mechanism for the localization of gauge fields on hypersurfaces in higher-dimensional bulk space-time. This mechanism exploits the analogy between confinement and dual…
We propose a mechanism ensuring (quasi)localization of massless gauge fields on a brane. The mechanism does not rely on BPS properties of the brane and can be realized in any theory where charged particles are confined to the world-volume.…
We consider real and complex scalar fields non-minimally coupled to gravity in the bulk spacetime and study their impact on the brane upon acquiring a non-vanishing vacuum expectation value. When examining the case of the complex scalar…
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…
We consider the effects of spacetime curvature and brane thickness on the localization of gauge fields on a brane via kinetic terms induced by localized fermions. We find that in a warped geometry with and infinitely thin brane, both the…
This work establishes a series of no-go conjectures that impose rigorous constraints on the localization of bulk fields in braneworld scenarios, specifically affecting gauge and spinor fields within five-dimensional spacetimes. Our approach…
In this paper, we investigate the localization of the $U(1)$ gauge field on Randall-Sundrum-like braneworld models. The localization of the $U(1)$ gauge field is important because it plays a fundamental role in the branworld theories. To…
We show that as in abelian gauge fields, nonabelian gauge fields are also trapped on a brane in the Randall-Sundrum model by applying a new mechanism based on topological Higgs mechanism. It is pointed out that although almost massless…
First, we present a simple confining abelian pure gauge theory. Classically, its kinetic term is not positive definite, and it contains a simple UV regularized F^4 interaction. This provoques the formation of a condensate ~ F^2 such that,…
We provide complete and self-contained formulas about localization of massless/massive Abelian gauge fields on topological solitons in generic $D$ dimensions via a field dependent gauge kinetic term. The localization takes place when a…
We discuss the relation between two different models which are recently proposed as the model of localizing bulk gauge fields on a brane. In the former model, the localization of gauge field is achieved by adding both bulk and boundary mass…
We study the brane world scenario of a single brane (or a single stack of branes) with codimension higher than one. When the extra dimensions are not small, localization of gravity around the brane is needed in order to reproduce the…
It has recently been proposed that gravity-localized compactifications can generate the required gauge hierarchy without the need for hierarchically large extra spacetime dimensions. In this paper, we show that gauge coupling unification…
We consider a modification of gravity at large distances in a Brane Universe which was discussed recently. In these models the modification of gravity at large distances is ultimately connected to existence of negative tension brane(s) and…
We study N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories with $d=6$ bulk and $d=4$ brane fields charged under a U(1) gauge symmetry. Radiatively induced Fayet-Iliopoulos terms lead to an instability of the bulk fields. We compute the profile of the bulk…
It has been suggested recently that in the presence of suitably "warped" extra dimensions, the low-energy limit of pure gauge field theory may contain massive elementary vector bosons localised on a "brane", but no elementary Higgs scalars.…
The idea of the self-breaking of the standard model gauge symmetry is applied to a gauge theory in a warped space. We systematically examine the gauge couplings of bulk and brane fermions. The constraint on the masses of bulk fermions is…
The confinement of electromagnetic field is studied in axial symmetrical, warped, 6D World Brane, using a recently proposed topological abelian string vortex solution as background. It was found, that the massless gauge field fluctuations…
We suggest a braneless scenario that still hides large-volume extra dimensions. Ordinarily the strength of bulk gauge interactions would be diluted over the large internal volume, making all the four dimensional forces weak. We use the fact…
