We present solutions for the late time evolution of cosmological tensor and scalar perturbations in a single-Randall-Sundrum brane world model. Assuming that the bulk is anti-de Sitter spacetime, the solutions for cosmological perturbations…
We construct a regular five-dimensional brane-world with localised gravity on a flat 3-brane. The matter content in the bulk is parametrised by an analog of a non-linear fluid with equation of state $p=\gamma\rho^\lambda$ between the…
We investigate cosmological consequences arising from the interaction between a homogeneous and isotropic brane-universe and the bulk. A Friedmann equation is derived which incorporates both the brane and bulk matter contributions, which…
In recent papers on Randall-Sundrum D-braneworld model with Z_2 symmetry, it was shown that the effective gravity does not work as usual, that is, the gravity does not couple to the gauge field localised on the brane in a usual way. At…
In stark contrast with the three-dimensional case, higher-dimensional Chern-Simons theories can have non-topological, propagating degrees of freedom. Finding those vacua that allow for the propagation of linear perturbations, however,…
We present the four-dimensional equations on a brane with a scalar field non-minimally coupled to the induced Ricci curvature, embedded in a five-dimensional bulk with a cosmological constant. This is a natural extension to a brane-world…
We study gravitational perturbations in the Randall-Sundrum two-brane background with scalar-curvature terms in the action for the branes, allowing for positive as well as negative bulk gravitational constant. In the zero-mode…
We study scalar cosmological perturbations in a braneworld model with a bulk Gauss-Bonnet term. For an anti-de Sitter bulk, the five-dimensional perturbation equations share the same form as in the Randall-Sundrum model, which allows us to…
We consider a six-dimensional axisymmetric Einstein-Maxwell model of warped braneworlds. The bulk is bounded by two branes, one of which is a conical 3-brane and the other is a 4-brane wrapped around the axis of symmetry. The latter brane…
In brane world scenarios with a bulk scalar field between two branes it is known that 4-dimensional Einstein gravity is restored at low energies on either brane. By using a gauge-invariant gravitational and scalar perturbation formalism we…
We derive the low-energy effective theory of gravity for a generalized Randall-Sundrum scenario, allowing for a third self-gravitating brane to live in the 5D bulk spacetime. At zero order the 5D spacetime is composed of two slices of…
In the Randall-Sundrum scenario, our universe is a 4-dimensional `brane' living in a 5-dimensional bulk spacetime. By studying the scattering of bulk gravity waves, we show that this brane rings with a characteristic set of complex…
We consider in the Randall-Sundrum scenario the dynamics of a spherically symmetric 3-brane world when matter fields exist in the bulk. We determine exact 5-dimensional solutions which localize gravity near the brane and describe the…
We study gravity in codimension-2 brane world scenarios with infinite volume extra dimensions. In particular, we consider the case where the brane has non-zero tension. The extra space then is a two-dimensional ``wedge'' with a deficit…
We present a complete scheme to discuss linear perturbations in the two-branes model of the Randall and Sundrum scenario with the stabilization mechanism proposed by Goldberger and Wise. We confirm that under the approximation of zero mode…
Five dimensional geodesic equation is used to study the gravitational force acted on a test particle in the bulk of the Randall-Sundrum two-brane model.This force could be interpreted as the gravitational attraction from matters on the two…
We look at general braneworlds in six-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We find the general matching conditions for the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet braneworld, which remarkably turn out to give precisely the four-dimensional Einstein…
The generalization of the Randall-Sundrum solution for the warp factor exp[sigma(y)] in the scenario with one extra coordinate y, non-factorizable space-time geometry and two branes isobtained. It is shown that the function obtained…
We present a supersymmetric version of the two-brane Randall-Sundrum scenario, with arbitrary brane tensions T_1 and T_2, subject to the bound |T_{1,2}| \leq \sqrt{-6\Lambda_5}, where \Lambda_5 < 0 is the bulk cosmological constant.…
Brane-world cosmology is motivated by recent developments in string/M-theory and offers a new perspective on the hierarchy problem. In the brane-world scenario, our Universe is a four-dimensional subspace or {\em brane} embedded in a…
