Vacuum force is an interesting low energy test for brane worlds due to its dependence on field's modes and its role in submillimeter gravity experiments. In this work we generalize a previous model example: the scalar field vacuum force…

By taking advantage of the braneworld sum rules, we explore the feasibility of constructing a flat 3-brane scenario consisting solely of positive tension branes in a 5D extension of the Lorentz-violating massive gravity. It is found that…

The DGP-model with additional terms in the action is considered. These terms have a special form and include auxiliary scalar fields without kinetic terms, which are non-minimally coupled to gravity. The use of these fields allows one to…

We investigate cosmological evolutions of the bulk scalar field $\phi(t)$ and the radion $d(t)$ in five-dimensional dilatonic two branes model. The bulk potential for the scalar field is taken as the exponential function $V_{bulk} \propto…

Five-dimensional spacetimes of two orbifold 3-branes are studied, by assuming that {\em the two 3-branes are spatially homogeneous, isotropic, and independent of time}, following the so-called "bulk-based" approach. The most general form of…

We consider warped five-dimensional thick braneworlds with four-dimensional Poincar\'e invariance originated from bulk scalar matter non-minimally coupled to gravity plus a Gauss-Bonnet term. The background field equations as well as the…

We consider bulk antisymmetric tensor fields of various ranks in a Randall-Sundrum scenario. We show that, rank-2 onwards, the zero-modes of the projections of these fields on the (3+1) dimensional visible brane become increasingly weaker…

In the Randall-Sundrum scenario we investigate the dynamics of a spherically symmetric 3-brane world when matter fields are present in the bulk. To analyze the 5-dimensional Einstein equations we employ a global conformal transformation…

Six dimensional bulk spacetimes with 3-- and 4--branes are constructed using certain non--conventional bulk scalars as sources. In particular, we investigate the consequences of having the phantom (negative kinetic energy) and the…

We have studied scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations of the four-dimensional Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m-like black holes with a \textit{tidal charge} in the Randall-Sundrum braneworld. The quasinormal modes of these scalar,…
