We propose new braneworld models arising from a scalar field in the bulk. In these examples, the induced on--brane line element is de Sitter (or anti de Sitter) and the bulk (five dimensional) Einstein equations can be exactly solved to…
We use nonlinear perturbation theory to obtain new solutions for brane world models that incorporate a massive bulk scalar field. We then consider tensor perturbations and show that Newtonian gravity is recovered on the brane for both a…

We explore the phenomenology of a stabilized modulus field in the Randall-Sundrum scenario. It is found that if the large separation between branes arises from a small bulk scalar mass then the modulus (i.e. radion) is likely to be lighter…
We study the dimensional reduction of fermions, both in the symmetric and in the broken phase of the 3-d Gross-Neveu model at large N. In particular, in the broken phase we construct an exact solution for a stable brane world consisting of…

In this paper we study analytical solutions for fermion localization in Randall-Sundrum (RS) models. We show that there exist special couplings between scalar fields and fermions giving us discrete massive localizable modes. Besides this we…

We introduce new realistic brane-solutions with exponential scale factors in the 6D-space-time. We show that for these solutions the zero modes of all bulk fields are sharply localized at different positions on the brane and have "Gaussian…

Braneworld models in extra dimensions can be tested in laboratory by the coupling of the radion to the Standard Model fields. The identification of the radion as a canonically normalized field involves a careful General Relativity…

In this thesis we mainly explore the evolution of both scalar and tensor cosmological perturbations in a Randall-Sundrum braneworld having an arbitrary expansion history. We adopt a four-dimensional perspective in which the localized…
The Standard Model flavor structure can be explained in theories where the fermions are localized on different points in a compact extra dimension. We show that models with two bulk scalars compactified on an orbifold can produce such…
