We suggest a thick braneworld model in the squared curvature gravity theory. Despite the appearance of higher order derivatives, the localization of gravity and various bulk matter fields is shown to be possible. The existence of the…
Inspired by the work [Eur. Phys. J. C 78 (2018) 45], we study the linear tensor perturbation of both the flat and bent thick branes with inner structure in two-field mimetic gravity. The master equations for the linear tensor perturbations…

We consider the problem of gravitational forces between point particles on the branes in a Randall-Sundrum (R-S) two brane model with $S^1/Z_2$ symmetry. Matter is assumed to produce a perturbation to the R-S vacuum metric and all the 5D…
We construct effective field theories for superconductors, that are powerful enough to describe low lying sub gap fermion modes localized to vortex cores, and at the same time resemble topological field theories in that there are no bulk…
We study bound states of D-p-branes and D-(p+2)-branes. By switching on a large magnetic field F on the (p+2) brane, the problem is shown to admit a perturbative analysis in an expansion in inverse powers of F. It is found that, to the…
Zero modes of various matters with spin 0, 1 and 1/2 on a class of scalar flat thick branes are discussed in this paper. We show that scalar field with spin 0 is localized on all thick branes without additional condition, while spin 1…
We consider a model for tensionless (null) super p-branes with N chiral supersymmetries in ten dimensional flat space-time. After establishing the symmetries of the action, we give the general solution of the classical equations of motion…
In this paper, we study the structure and gravitational resonances of thick branes generated by a mimetic scalar field in $f(R)$ gravity. We obtain several typical thick brane solutions for $f(R)=R+\alpha R^2$. To study their stability, we…
Several arguments given in arXiv:1912.12316 suggest that braneworld effective models with fields strictly localized on $\delta$-like branes cannot be UV-completed by a fundamental theory including gravity, i.e. they belong to the Swampland.…
We study a thick and Z_2 symmetric braneworld model with a non-minimally coupled bulk scalar. Several analytic solutions are found. There are two categories of the brane configuration: standard branes and deformed ones. The former is just…
The abelian $(p+1)$-form gauge field is inherently coupled to the $p$-brane worldvolume. After quantization, the corresponding $p$-form gauge transformation is associated with the local phase ambiguity of the $p$-brane wave functional. In…
In this paper, we investigate localization of a free massless $q-$form bulk field on thin and thick $AdS_{p+1}$ branes with codimension one. It is found that the zero mode of the $q-$form field with $q>(p+2)/2$ can be localized on the thin…
We explore thick branes in $f(R,\phi,X)$ gravity. We obtain the linear tensor perturbation equation of $f(R,\phi,X)$ branes and show that the branes are stable against the tensor perturbations under the condition of $\frac{\partial…
We analyze a class of 5D models where a 3 brane is generated by a bulk scalar field non minimally coupled to gravity. We show that perturbative stability of such branes is normally guaranteed although non minimal couplings are not innocuous…
We consider the Newton's force law for brane world consisting of periodic configuration of branes. We show that it supports a massless graviton. Furthermore, this massless mode is well separated from the Kaluza-Klein spectrum by a mass gap.…
We investigate scalar and tensor fields in the brane model solution for the 5D space-time with standing gravitational waves in the bulk and show that even in the case of increasing warp factor there exist normalizable zero modes localized…
We examine the behaviour of gravity in brane theories with extra dimensions in a non-factorizable geometry. We find that for metrics which are asymptotically flat far from the brane there is a resonant graviton mode at zero energy. The…
The bosonic content of string theory in curved background of multidimensional structure with p-branes has a systematic geometrical description as an effective sigma-model of gravity in lower dimension (say 3+1) with additional interacting…
We consider type IIB (p,q) 5-branes in constant non-zero background tensor potentials, or equivalently, with finite constant field strength on the brane. At linear level, zero-modes are introduced and the physical degrees of freedom are…
