We consider p-branes with one or more circular directions fibered over the transverse space. The fibration, in conjunction with the transverse space having a blown-up cycle, enables these p-brane solutions to be completely regular. Some…

We derive a new class of time-dependent solutions for the Randall-Sundrum model by patching together isometries broken by the brane. Solutions generated by generalized boosts along the fifth dimension are associated with localized gravity…
We consider brane cosmologies within the context of five-dimensional actions with O(a') higher curvature corrections. The actions are compatible with bulk string amplitude calculations from heterotic string theory. We find wrapped solutions…

We have found the solution to the back reaction of putting a stack of coincident D3 and D5 branes in $R^{3,1}\times M_6$, where $M_6$ is constructed from an infinite class of Sasaki-Einstein spaces, $L^{(p,q,r)}$. The non-zero fluxes…
