A solution of the Randall-Sundrum model for a simplified case (one wall) is obtained. It is given by the $1/k^2$-expansion (thin wall expansion) where $1/k$ is the {\it thickness} of the domain wall. The vacuum setting is done by the 5D…
Naively, helicity flip amplitudes for fermions seem to vanish in the chiral limit of light-front QCD, which would make it nearly impossible to generate a small pion mass in this framework. Using a simple model, it is illustrated how a large…

We study the generation of fermion mass in a context where interactions break a discrete chiral symmetry. Then, fermion mass is not protected by a symmetry, no symmetry is broken by the generation of mass, and a vanishing mass no longer…
A new mechanism is proposed for generating neutrino masses radiatively through a non-minimal coupling to gravity of fermionic bilinears involving massive neutral fermions. Such coupling terms can arise in theories where the gravity sector…
