In the framework of brane models the postulates of special relativity theory is revised. It is assumed that there exists preferred frame and relativity principle is violated on the brane. Because of trapping any moving object on the brane…
It is important to reveal the brane-bulk correspondence for understanding the brane world cosmology. When gravitational waves exist in the bulk, however, it is difficult to make the analysis of the interrelationship between the brane and…
We find all possible static embeddings of a 4-brane in any dimension-6 spacetime with 4-dimensional Poincare symmetry and a negative cosmological constant, subject to orbifolding across the brane. Our new solutions allow intersecting branes…
Recent developments in the physics of extra dimensions have opened up new avenues to test such theories. We review cosmological aspects of brane world scenarios such as the Randall--Sundrum brane model and two--brane systems with a bulk…
We consider a braneworld model in the scalar-tensor gravity. In order to solve the gauge hierarchy problem in this model, our world should be confined on the positive tension brane rather than on the negative one. This is crucial to…
In this paper a model in a space-time with compact extra dimension is presented, describing five-dimensional fermion fields interacting with an electromagnetic field localized on a brane. This model can be considered as a toy model for…
We present a general rule determining how extremal branes can interesect in a configuration with zero binding energy. The rule is derived in a model independent way and in arbitrary spacetime dimensions $D$ by solving the equations of…
Since the Randall-Sundrum 1999 papers, braneworlds have been a favourite playground to test string inspired cosmological models. The subject has developped into two main directions : elaborating more complex models in order to strenghten…
First, we will study the cosmological perturbations from the brane point of view. It turns out that two types of the extra data are necessary to know the evolution of the system. To fix these data, the analysis of the bulk is needed. So, we…
We consider six dimensional brane world models with a compact and a warped extra dimension with five dimensional branes. We find that such scenarios have many interesting features arising from both ADD and Randall-Sundrum -models. In…
We briefly review the distinctive signals of brane world models with low tension. We pay special attention to the brane fluctuations (branons), whose phenomenological consequences could be important both in high energy particle physics…
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…
We consider ``brane-universes'', where matter is confined to four-dimensional hypersurfaces (three-branes) whereas one extra compact dimension is felt by gravity only. We show that the cosmology of such branes is definitely different from…
The `braneworld' (described by the usual worldvolume action) is a D dimensional timelike surface embedded in a N dimensional ($N>D$) warped, nonfactorisable spacetime. We first address the conditions on the warp factor required to have an…
The constraint of trans-Planckian censorship conjecture on brane inflation model is considered. The conjectures put an upper bound on the main parameter including temperature, inflation time, potential, and the tensor-to-scalar ratio…
The study of the so called brane world models has introduced completely new ways of looking up on standard problems in many areas of theoretical physics. Inspired in the recent developments of string theory, the Brane World picture involves…
Special relativity is generalized to extra dimensions and quantized energy levels of particles are obtained. By calculating the probability of particles' motion in extra dimensions at high temperature of the early universe, it is proposed…
In this paper we consider some constraints on brane-world cosmologies. In the first part we analyze different behaviors for the expansion of our universe by imposing constraints on the speed of sound. In the second part, we study the nature…
We propose new braneworld models arising from a scalar field in the bulk. In these examples, the induced on--brane line element is de Sitter (or anti de Sitter) and the bulk (five dimensional) Einstein equations can be exactly solved to…
We elaborate on the recently proposed static brane world scenario, where the effective 4-D cosmological constant is exponentially small when parallel 3-branes are far apart. We extend this result to a compactified model with two positive…
