We study the formation of superradiant bound states for massive scalar fields in five-dimensional rotating black string geometries with a non-vanishing Kaluza-Klein momentum along the compact direction. Even though all Kaluza-Klein modes…
A soft-wall warped extra dimension allows one to relax the tight constraints imposed by electroweak data in conventional Randall-Sundrum models. We investigate a setup, where the lepton flavour structure of the Standard Model is realised by…
We discuss nonminimal couplings of fermions to the electromagnetic field, which generically appear in models with extra dimensions. We consider models where the electromagnetic field is generated by the Kaluza-Klein mechanism. The…
We study in detail the issue of gauge-fixing in theories with one universal extra dimension, i.e. theories where both bosons and fermions display Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitations. The extra dimension is compactified using the standard orbifold…
We consider a toroidal extra-dimensional space with shape moduli $\theta$ which is the angle between the two large extra dimensions $R_1$ and $R_2$ (twisted LED with $\delta=2$). The Kaluza-Klein (KK) compactification results in a tower of…
An analysis is first given of the situation where a scalar field is contained between two fixed, spatially flat, branes. The usual fine-tuning (RS) condition is relaxed, and the branes are allowed to possess a positive effective…
In this brief report, we summarize our recent studies in brane cosmology in both string theory and M-Theory on $S^{1}/Z_{2}$. In such setups, we find that the radion is stable and its mass, with a very conservative estimation, can be of the…
Torsion appears due to fermions coupled to gravity and leads to the strongest particle physics bounds on flat extra dimensions. In this work, we consider torsion constraints in the case of a warped extra dimension with brane and bulk…

We revisit the phenomenology of dark-matter (DM) scenarios within radius-stabilized Randall-Sundrum models. Specifically, we consider models where the dark matter candidates are Standard Model (SM) singlets confined to the TeV brane and…
A class of thick branes in the background of sine-Gordon kinks with a scalar potential $V(\phi)=p(1+\cos\frac{2\phi}{q})$ was constructed by R. Koley and S. Kar [Classical Quantum Gravity \textbf{22}, 753 (2005)]. In this paper, in the…
The idea of the self-breaking of the standard model gauge symmetry is applied to a gauge theory in a warped space. We systematically examine the gauge couplings of bulk and brane fermions. The constraint on the masses of bulk fermions is…
In this paper, we mainly investigate the problems of resonances of massive KK fermions on a single scalar constructed thick brane with a piecewise warp factor matching smoothly. The distance between two boundaries and the other parameters…
In this article we study Kaluza-Klein (KK) dimensional reduction of massive Abelian gauge theories with charged matter fields on a circle. Since local gauge transformations change position dependence of the charged fields, the decomposition…
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of Kaluza-Klein (KK) towers in warped compactifications to Minkowski space. Focusing on the overall decompactification limit, we derive the scaling of KK masses at large KK momentum for scalar…
A brief review of the recent developments in the physics from extra dimensions is given with a focus on the effects of Kaluza-Klein excitations in the Standard Model sector. It is shown that the current accurate data on the Fermi constant…
TeV-scale extra dimensions may play an important role in electroweak or supersymmetry breaking. We examine the phenomenology of such dimensions, compactified on a sphere $S^n$, $n \geq 2$, and show that they possess distinct features and…
Perturbative breaking of supersymmetry in four-dimensional string theories predict in general the existence of new large dimensions at the TeV scale. Such dimensions can be consistent with perturbative unification up to the Planck scale in…
In this paper we consider a multidimensional Kaluza-Klein (KK) model with a Ricci-flat internal space, e.g., a Calabi-Yau manifold. We perturb this background metrics by a system of gravitating masses, e.g., astrophysical objects such as…
We construct a complete five dimensional Quark-Lepton symmetric model, with all fields propagating in the bulk. The extra dimension forms an $S^1/Z_2\times Z_2'$ orbifold with the zero mode fermions corresponding to standard model quarks…
