Starting from a recently proposed abelian topological model in (2+1) dimensions, we use the method of the consistent deformations to prove that a topologically massive model involving the Kalb-Ramond two form field does not admit a…
The intriguing question, why the present scale of the universe is free from any perceptible footprints of rank-2 antisymmetric tensor fields? (generally known as Kalb-Ramond fields) is addressed. A quite natural explanation of this issue is…
We investigate a theory in which fundamental objects are branes described in terms of higher grade coordinates X^{\mu_1 ... \mu_n} encoding both the motion of a brane as a whole, and its volume evolution. We thus formulate a dynamics which…
This paper presents some cosmological consequences of the five dimensional, two brane Randall-Sundrum brane scenario. The radius of the compact extra dimension is taken to be time dependent. It is shown that the cosmology consistent with…

We provide the exact time-dependent cosmological solutions in the Randall-Sundrum (RS) setup with bulk matter, which may be smoothly connected to the static RS metric. In the static limit of the extra dimension, the solutions are reduced to…

We consider Randall-Sundrum model with localized gravity, replacing the extra compact space-like dimension by a time-like one. In this way the solution to the hierarchy problem can be reconciled with a correct cosmological expansion of the…
Detailed knowledge of the different classes of stellar orbits that can be accommodated in a given galactic potential is a prerequisite when building self-consistent models using for instance the Schwazschild technique. Furthermore,…
General relativity limits the compactness of static stars. If the pressure of the fluid is positive and the density decreases with distance from the center, the value of the circumferential radius of the star must be greater than (9/4) G…
Much recent attention has focused on theories with large extra compactified dimensions. However, while the phenomenological implications of the volume moduli associated with such compactifications are well understood, relatively little…
We show that shape moduli in sub-millimeter extra dimensional scenarios, addressing the gauge hierarchy problem, can dominate the energy density of the universe today. In our scenario, the volume of the extra dimensions is stabilized at a…
The emphasis in the developmet of theories with more than three spatial dimensions has recently shifted towards ``brane world'' picture, which assumes that ordinary matter (with possible exceptions of gravitons and other, hypothetic,…
Two distinct non-singular interior models that describe anisotropic spherical configurations are presented in this work. We develop the Einstein field equations and the associated mass function in accordance with a static spherical…
Large extra dimensions lower the Planck scale to values soon accessible. Motivated by String Theory, the models of large extra dimensions predict a vast number of new effects in the energy range of the lowered Planck scale, among them the…
A new framework for solving the hierarchy problem was recently proposed which does not rely on low energy supersymmetry or technicolor. The fundamental Planck mass is at a $\tev$ and the observed weakness of gravity at long distances is due…
In the present work authors derive exact solutions for the relativistic compact stars in the presence of two fields axion (Dante's Inferno model) and with/without the complex scalar field (with the quartic self-interaction) coupled to…
String theory suggests modifications of our spacetime such as extra dimensions and the existence of a mininal length scale. In models with addidional dimensions, the Planck scale can be lowered to values accessible by future colliders.…
In this paper, we study the stellar structure in terms of alternative theory of gravity specially by f (R;T) gravity theory. Here, we consider the function f (R;T) = R+2VT where R is the Ricci scalar, T is the stress-energy momentum and V…
We consider theories in which the Standard Model gauge fields propagate in extra dimensions whose size is around the electroweak scale. The Standard Model quarks and leptons may either be localized to a brane or propagate in the bulk. This…
