We show that the embedding of either a static or a time dependent maximally 3-symmetric brane with non-zero spatial curvature $k$ into a non-compactified $AdS_5$ bulk does not yield exponential suppression of the geometry away from the…
In this work we study localization of a Kalb-Ramond tensorial gauge field on a membrane described by real scalar fields. The membrane is embedded in an AdS-type five dimensional bulk space, which mimic a Randall-Sundrum scenario. First, we…
This paper investigates the possible cosmological implications of the presence of an antisymmetric tensor field related to a lack of commutatitivity of spacetime coordinates at the Planck era. For this purpose, such a field is promoted to a…
A mechanism for localization of quantum fields on a $s$-brane, representing the boundary of a s+2 dimensional bulk space, is investigated. Minkowski and AdS bulk spaces are analyzed. Besides the background geometry, the relevant parameters…

We consider localization of gravity on thick branes with a non trivial structure. Double walls that generalize the thick Randall-Sundrum solution, and asymmetric walls that arise from a Z_2-symmetric scalar potential, are considered. We…
We study a thick and Z_2 symmetric braneworld model with a non-minimally coupled bulk scalar. Several analytic solutions are found. There are two categories of the brane configuration: standard branes and deformed ones. The former is just…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the bulk spacetimes with the negative cosmological constant in the context of the brane-world scenario. We show that, in Euclidean bulk, or in Lorentzian static bulk, some sequences of hypersurfaces with…

In this paper, we investigate localization of a free massless $q-$form bulk field on thin and thick $AdS_{p+1}$ branes with codimension one. It is found that the zero mode of the $q-$form field with $q>(p+2)/2$ can be localized on the thin…
We give a short review of the recent development in the investigation of the vacuum expectation values of the bulk and surface energy-momentum tensors generated by quantum fluctuations of a massive scalar field with general curvature…
Recently, a new scalar-tensor braneworld model was presented in [Phys. Rev. \textbf{D 86} (2012) 127502]. It not only solves the gauge hierarchy problem but also reproduces a correct Friedmann-like equation on the brane. In this new model,…
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,…
In the context of $f(T,B)$ modified teleparallel gravity, we investigate the influence of torsion scalar $T$ and boundary term $B$ on the confinement of both the gauge vector and Kalb-Ramond fields. Both fields require a suitable coupling…
We investigate the effect of the bulk gravitational field on the cosmological perturbations on a brane embedded in the 5D Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. The effective 4D Einstein equations for the scalar cosmological perturbations on the…
We address the localization of a scalar field, whose bulk-mass M is considered in a wide range including the tachyonic region,on a three-brane. The brane with non-zero cosmological constant $\lambda$ is embedded in five dimensional bulk…
We study the dynamical localization of a massless gauge field on a lower-dimensional surface (2-brane). In flat space, the necessary and sufficient condition for this phenomenon is the existence of confinement in the bulk. The resulting…
We investigate quantum field theory in a bulk space with boundary, which represents a 3-brane. Both flat and anti-de Sitter backgrounds are considered. The basic idea is to keep local commutativity only on the brane, giving up this…
Inspired by the work [Eur. Phys. J. C 78 (2018) 45], we study the linear tensor perturbation of both the flat and bent thick branes with inner structure in two-field mimetic gravity. The master equations for the linear tensor perturbations…
We report the issues of localization of various bulk fields on a brane in a curved background from a local field-theoretic viewpoint where a special attention is paid to a warp geometry in a general space-time dimension. We point out that…
