In this work we analyze the localization of fermions on a brane embedded in five-dimensional, warped and non-warped, space-time. In both cases we use the same nonlinear theoretical model with a non-polynomial potential featuring a…
This study delves deeply into braneworld scenarios within modified gravity models, investigating their impact on particle localization and the structure of branes. Through a comprehensive blend of numerical analyses and theoretical…
We consider six dimensional brane world models with a compact and a warped extra dimension with five dimensional branes. We find that such scenarios have many interesting features arising from both ADD and Randall-Sundrum -models. In…
In the usual brane-world scenario matter fields are confined to the four-dimensional spacetime, called a 3-brane, embedded in a higher-dimensional space, usually referred to as the bulk spacetime. In this paper we assume that the 3-brane is…
In a brane (domain wall) scenario with an infinite extra dimension and localized gravity, bulk fermions and scalars often have bound states with zero 4-dimensional mass. In this way massless matter residing on the brane may be obtained. We…
In this thesis we study the dynamics of higher-dimensional gravity in a universe emerging from a brane collision. We develop a set of powerful analytic methods which, we believe, render braneworld cosmological perturbation theory solvable.…
We propose a new higher-dimensional mechanism to localize scalar fields as well as fermionic and gauge fields. The underlying theory is a six-dimensional non-commutative field theory where non-commutativity is allowed along two extra…
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…
We construct brane solutions in 6 dimensional Einstein-Skyrme systems. A class of baby skyrmion solutions realizes warped compactification of the extra dimensions and gravity localization on the brane for negative bulk cosmological…
In this work we deal with thick brane solutions in the warped five-dimensional braneworld scenario with a single extra spatial dimension of infinite extent, for a class of modified theories of gravity with a Lagrange multiplier. We first…
Field localization on 2-dim extra space is considered in the framework of f(R) gravity. It is shown that an interference of local matter energy distribution and a metric of the extra space form a point-like defect - 4-dim brane. The…
We discuss the localization of scalar, fermion, and gauge field zero modes on a $3-$brane that resides at the intersection of two $4-$branes in six-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. This set-up has been introduced in the context of brane…
Braneworld theories are often described as low-energy effective field theories (EFTs) featuring an infinitely thin 3-brane and 4D fields exactly localized on it. We investigate whether an exactly localized braneworld can arise as a limit of…
We give a pedagogical introduction to the physics of large extra dimensions. We focus our discussion on minimal extensions of the Standard Model in which gauge fields may propagate in a single, compact extra dimension while the fermions are…
Extra-dimensional scenarios have become widespread among particle and gravitational theories of physics to address several outstanding problems, including cosmic acceleration, the weak hierarchy problem, and the quantization of gravity. In…
We study cosmological consequences of non-constant brane world moduli in five dimensional brane world models with bulk scalars and two boundary branes. We focus on the case where the brane tension is an exponential function of the bulk…
In braneworld collisions fermions originally localised on one brane can be transferred to another brane, or to a space-time boundary. By modelling branes as scalar field kinks we bounce them off boundaries and study resulting effects…
Five-dimensional scenarios with infinitesimally thin branes replaced by appropriate configurations of a scalar field were considered. A possibility of periodic extra dimension was discussed in the presence on non-minimal scalar-gravity…
The aim of this talk is to provide non-experts with a brief and elementary introduction on the field of extra dimensions. The main motivation for extra dimensions relies on the more fundamental string theories that predict ten (or eleven)…
We study a class of type I string models with supersymmetry broken on the world-volume of some D-branes and vanishing tree-level potential. Despite the non-supersymmetric spectrum, supersymmetry is non-linearly realized on these D-branes,…
