We study the two-centred AdS_7 x S^4 solution of eleven-dimensional supergravity using the Euclidean path-integral approach, and find that it can be interpreted as an instanton, signalling the splitting of the throat of the M5 brane. The…
In this work we present a new class of braneworld models, where the superpotential function may be decomposed in a very specific form, but still embracing, which allows considerable simplifications in the field equations. We exemplify the…

We investigate the thick brane model in Palatini $f(\mathcal{R})$ gravity. The brane is generated by a real scalar field with a scalar potential. We solve the system analytically and obtain a series of thick brane solutions for the…
This work deals with thick braneworld models, in an environment where the Ricci scalar is changed to accommodate the addition of two extra terms, one depending on the Ricci scalar itself, and the other, which takes into account the trace of…
We report the issues of localization of various bulk fields on a brane in a curved background from a local field-theoretic viewpoint where a special attention is paid to a warp geometry in a general space-time dimension. We point out that…
In this work, we obtain exact thick brane models in $4+1$ dimensions generated by higher order field theory kinks, inspired by specific potentials for $\phi^{10}$ and $\phi^{18}$ models. We verify that the geodesic equation along the fifth…
We explore the possibility of constructing stable, warped two--brane models which solve the hierarchy problem, with a bulk non--canonical scalar field (tachyon matter) as the source term in the action. Among our examples are two models--one…
In the context of braneworld scenarios, the real scalar field plays a crucial role by providing thickness for brane. In this work, we investigate a codimension-one thick brane within the framework of $f(R,Q,P)$ gravity, where $R$ represents…
A new class of warped Anti-de Sitter solutions is found, arising as the near-horizon region of various semi-localized brane intersections. The dual gauge theories of AdS in warped spacetimes have reduced supersymmetry, which is pertinent to…
We examine the inclusion of brane self-gravity in brane-world scenarios with three or more compact extra dimensions. If the brane is a thin, localized one, then we find that the geometry in its vicinity is warped in such a way that gravity…
We study the thick brane model within $f(R)\sim R^n$ modified gravity in $D$-dimensional spacetimes with $D\geq 6$. The system under consideration consists of two branes orthogonal to each other: the four-dimensional Lorentzian brane and…

In this paper, we have considered a 5-dimensional warped product space-time with a timedependent warp factor. The time-dependent warp factor plays an important role in localizing matter to the 4-dimensional hypersurface constituting the…
This is a pedagogical introduction into theories with branes and extra dimensions. We first discuss the construction of such models from an effective field theory point of view, and then discuss large extra dimensions and some of their…
We model four-dimensional junctions made out of intersections of co-dimension one brane living in higher-dimensional spacetimes through domain walls. We take a new look at the problem of localizing fermion states on brane junctions as a…
