We study the unitarity of models with low scale quantum gravity both in four dimensions and in models with a large extra-dimensional volume. We find that models with low scale quantum gravity have problems with unitarity below the scale at…

The success of the Randall-Sundrum scenario relies on stabilization of the modulus field or the radion, which is the scalar field about the background geometry. The stabilization mechanism proposed by Goldberger and Wise has the consequence…
We study the radion stability and radion mass in the framework of the Horava-Witten (HW) heterotic M-Theory on $S^{1}/Z_{2}$, and find that the radion is stable and its mass can be of the order of GeV. The gravity is localized on the…
We study multi-scalar models of radius stabilization, with an eye towards application to novel extra-dimensional models of symmetry breaking. With inspiration from holography, we construct a multi-scalar effective potential that is a…
We consider a class of generalized FRW type metrics in the context of higher dimensional Einstein gravity in which the extra dimensions are allowed to have different scale factors. It is shown that noncommutativity between the momenta…
We propose a new radion stabilization mechanism in the Randall-Sundrum spacetime, introducing a bulk ${SU(N_H)}$ gauge field which confines at a TeV scale. It turns out that the radion is stabilized by the balance between a brane tension…
The scalar field associated with fluctuations in the positions of the two branes, the ``radion'', plays an important role determining the cosmology and collider phenomenology of the Randall-Sundrum solution to the hierarchy problem. It is…
