We study theoretically and experimentally a novel type of metamaterial with hybrid elements composed of twisted pairs of cross-shaped meta-atoms and their complements. We reveal that such two-layer metasurfaces demonstrate large,…
Multimodal imaging has transformed neuroscience research. While it presents unprecedented opportunities, it also imposes serious challenges. Particularly, it is difficult to combine the merits of the interpretability attributed to a simple…
We derive a system of cosmological equations for a braneworld with induced curvature which is a junction between several bulk spaces. The permutation symmetry of the bulk spaces is not imposed, and the values of the fundamental constants,…
We study brane world models which contain local topological defects in the bulk and a (3+1)-dimensional inflating brane. We put the emphasis on new types of solutions that are periodic in the bulk radial coordinate and thus provide examples…
We identify the obstructions for T-dualizing the boundary WZW model and make explicit how they depend on the geometry of branes. In particular, the obstructions disappear for certain brane configurations associated to non-regular elements…
Incorporating boundaries of the imaging object as a priori information to imaging algorithms can significantly improve the performance of electromagnetic medical imaging systems. To avoid overly complicating the system by using different…
This is a pedagogical introduction into theories with branes and extra dimensions. We first discuss the construction of such models from an effective field theory point of view, and then discuss large extra dimensions and some of their…
In these lectures, I give an introduction to and overview of braneworlds and black holes in the context of warped compactifications. I first describe the general paradigm of braneworlds, and introduce the Randall-Sundrum model. I discuss…
In the teleparallel $f(T)$ gravity scenario, we consider a five-dimensional thick brane. This scenario is interesting because this theory can provide explanations for inflation, radiation, and dark matter under certain conditions. It is…
We observe toroidal response from a planar metamaterial comprised of asymmetric split ring resonators (ASRRs). It is showed that a toroidal-molecule can be constructed through rational arrangement of planar ASRRs as meta-atoms via…
The low energy regime of 5D braneworld models with a bulk scalar field is studied. The setup is rather general and includes the Randall-Sundrum and dilatonic braneworlds models as particular cases. We discuss the cosmological evolution of…
We reconsider the role that bundle gerbes play in the formulation of the WZW model on closed and open surfaces. In particular, we show how an analysis of bundle gerbes on groups covered by SU(N) permits to determine the spectrum of…
We study a flat brane solution in an effective 5D action for cascading gravity and propose a mechanism to screen extrinsic curvature in the presence of a large tension on the brane. The screening mechanism leaves the bulk Riemann-flat, thus…
The foundations of matrix geometry are discussed, which provides the basis for recent progress on the effective geometry and gravity in Yang-Mills matrix models. Basic examples lead to a notion of embedded noncommutative spaces (branes)…
Warped braneworld scenario provides an alternative to the usual Kaluza-Klein compactification of extra dimensions through the so-called localization of fields. Randall-Sundrum type models do not directly prove, rather, assume that all…
The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model is extended to the three and higher dimensional systems. Nearly or absolutely flat midgap surface and hypersurface bands are predicted based on the topological analysis, which do not require fine tuning of…
In this paper, we explore the five-dimensional f(T,B) teleparallel modified gravity with f_1(T,B)=T+k_1B^{n_1} and f_2(T,B)=B+k_2T^{n_2} in the brane scenario. Asymptotically, the bulk geometry converges to an AdS_5 spacetime whose…
Since the turn of the century, metamaterials have gained a large amount of attention due to their potential for possessing highly nontrivial and exotic properties such as cloaking or perfect lensing. There has been a great push to create…
We explore some fundational issues regarding the splitting of D-dimensional EFE's w.r.t timelike and spacelike (D-1)-dimensional hypersurfaces, first without and then with thin matter sheets such as branes. We begin to implement…
Hyperbolic metamaterials are strongly anisotropic artificial composite materials at a subwavelength scale and can greatly widen the engineering feasibilities for manipulation of wave propagation. However, limited by the empirical structure…
