We discuss issues in an attempt to put the Standard Model (SM) in five-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime compactified on $S^1/Z_2$. The recently-proposed approach to the gauge hierarchy problem by using this background geometry, with the…
We construct the effective theory of the graviscalar radion in the Randall-Sundrum scenario, taking into account effects arising from the stabilization of the extra dimension through the Goldberger-Wise mechanism. We explore the conditions…
We discuss the moduli stabilization in a de Sitter compactification model obtained coupling D-dimensional gravity to scalar and gauge fields. This class of models is characterized by two moduli: one related to the volume of the internal…
In the recent years, phenomenological models of moduli stabilization were proposed, where the dynamics of the stabilization is essentially supersymmetric, whereas an O'Rafearthaigh supersymmetry breaking sector is responsible for the…
We show the (already known) fact that Randall-Sundrum scenarious although compatible with a ${\mathbb{Z}}_2$ orbifold symmetry cannot hold regularity of the fields at the orbifold planes in the absence of boundary actions and respective…
We present a variant formulation of the Randall-Sundrum model which solves both the hierarchy and charge universality problems. We first critique the rationale for hierarchy solution and 4D effective interactions in the Randall-Sundrum…
Taking into account the recently proposed poly-instanton corrections to the superpotential and combining the race-track with a KKLT respectively LARGE Volume Scenario in an intricate manner, we show that we gain exponential control over the…

Statistical models that possess symmetry arise in diverse settings such as random fields associated to geophysical phenomena, exchangeable processes in Bayesian statistics, and cyclostationary processes in engineering. We formalize the…
Anthropic solutions to the cosmological constant problem require seemingly unnatural scalar field potentials with a very small slope or domain walls (branes) with a very small coupling to a four-form field. Here we introduce a class of…
Modified gravity theories have received increased attention lately to understand the late time acceleration of the universe. This viewpoint essentially modifies the geometric components of the universe. Among numerous extension to…

We use so-called geometrical approach in description of transition from regular motion to chaotic in Hamiltonian systems with potential energy surface that has several local minima. Distinctive feature of such systems is coexistence of…
We address the physical mechanism responsible for the emergence of magnetization plateaux in the Shastry-Sutherland model. By using a hierarchical mean-field approach we demonstrate that a plateau is stabilized in a certain {\it spin…
It was shown recently that stochastic quantization can be made into a well defined quantization scheme on (pseudo-)Riemannian manifolds using second order differential geometry, which is an extension of the commonly used first order…
We consider the stabilization of de Sitter brane-world. The scalar field bulk-brane theory produces the non-trivial minimum of modulus potential where temporal radion is realized. The hierarchy problem (between Planck and electroweak…
There is the scale problem in the Randall-Sundrum models. Regarding this, I review the works done with B. S. Kyae and H. M. Lee. In a supersymmetric generalization in the RSI model, we discuss that the $\mu$ parameter can be obtained by an…
In this paper, we will consider a subclass of models of Horndeski theories of gravity and we will check for several Static Spherically Symmetric solutions. We will find a model which admits an exact black hole solution and we will study its…
We study the stability of static, spherically symmetric solutions of Rastall's theory in the presence of a scalar field with respect to spherically symmetric perturbations. It is shown that the stability analysis is inconsistent in the…
A finitely generated quadratic module or preordering in the real polynomial ring is called stable, if it admits a certain degree bound on the sums of squares in the representation of polynomials. Stability, first defined explicitly by…
