The most obvious field-theoretic model for a brane is a scalar field domain wall or kink. I discuss how this idea can be connected with spontaneous internal symmetry breaking via a mechanism called the ``clash of symmetries''. Compatibility…
Transformer-based networks applied to image patches have achieved cutting-edge performance in many vision tasks. However, lacking the built-in bias of convolutional neural networks (CNN) for local image statistics, they require large…
We consider a warped five-dimensional model with an ultraviolet (UV) brane and, on top of the Standard Model isolated modes, continua of KK modes with different mass gaps for all particles: gauge bosons, fermions, graviton, radion and Higgs…
We present a detailed systematics for comparing warped brane inflation with the observations, incorporating the effects of both moduli stabilization and ultraviolet bulk physics. We explicitly construct an example of the inflaton potential…
We study scalar quasinormal modes in a D3/D7 system holographically dual to a quantum field theory with chiral symmetry breaking at finite temperature. From the bottom-up approach, we consider a nontrivial dilaton profile which is…
We study linearized graviton in the presence of a four-dimensional cosmological constant in two brane models with a warped extra dimension. In explicit models including bulk scalar fields, we calculate the masses of Kaluza-Klein modes of…
Among the multiple 5D thick braneworld models that have been proposed in the last years, in order to address several open problems in modern physics, there is a specific one involving a tachyonic bulk scalar field. Delving into this…
Based on the recently proposed scenario of inflation driven by a bulk scalar field in the braneworld of the Randall-Sundrum (RS) type, we investigate the dynamics of a bulk scalar field on the inflating braneworld. We derive the late time…
The Randall-Sundrum warped braneworld model is generalised to six and higher dimensions such that the warping has a non-trivial dependence on more than one dimension. This naturally leads to a brane-box like configuration alongwith scalar…
In this work the role of extra dimensions in the accelerated universe through the scenario of higher-dimensional Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmology has been studied. For this purpose, we first consider warped space-time in the…
We study parametric amplification of Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes in a higher $D$-dimensional generalized Kaluza-Klein theory, which was originally considered by Mukohyama in the narrow resonance case. It was suggested that KK modes can be…
This work sets up a general theoretical framework to study stability of models with a warped extra dimension where N scalar fields couple minimally to gravity. Our analysis encompasses Randall-Sundrum models with branes and bulk scalars,…
We develop the necessary ingredients for the construction of realistic models with warped universal extra dimensions. Our investigations are based on the seven dimensional (7D) spacetime AdS_5 x T^2 and we derive the Kaluza-Klein (KK)…
We consider a set of elementary compactifications of $D+1$ to $D$ spacetime dimensions on a circle: first for pure general relativity, then in the presence of a scalar field, first free then with a non minimal coupling to the Ricci scalar,…
We investigate the dynamics of a bulk scalar field with various decay channels in the Randall-Sundrum infinite braneworld scenario. A bulk scalar field in this scenario has a quasi-localized mode which dominates the late-time behavior near…
We construct the holographic type nonlocal effective action in two-brane Randall-Sundrum model and show that it describes a phase transition between the local and nonlocal phases of the theory -- a cumulative effect of the tower of massive…
We consider a DGP brane scenario where a scalar field is present on the brane through the introduction of a scalar potential, itself motivated by the notion of modified gravity. This theory predicts that the mass appearing in the…
Many solitonic configurations in field theory have localized bound states in their spectrum of linear perturbations. This opens up the possibility of having long lived excitations of these solitons that could affect their dynamics. We start…
We consider a dc-driven damped sine-Gordon model with a small nonlinear spatial-disorder term, onto which a sinusoidal modulation is superimposed. It describes, e.g., a weakly disordered system with a regular grain structure. We demonstrate…
The influence of closed string moduli on the D-brane moduli space is studied from a worldsheet point of view. Whenever a D-brane cannot be adjusted to an infinitesimal change of the closed string background, the corresponding exactly…
