The Randall-Sundrum warped braneworld model is generalised to six and higher dimensions such that the warping has a non-trivial dependence on more than one dimension. This naturally leads to a brane-box like configuration alongwith scalar…
A new mechanism which leads to a linearized massless graviton localized on the brane is found in the $AdS$/CFT setting, {\it i.e.} in a single copy of $AdS_5$ spacetime with a singular brane on the boundary, within the Randall-Sundrum…
We find a class of extremal black hole-like global p-brane in higher-dimensional gravity with a negative cosmological constant. The region inside the p-brane horizon possesses all essential features required for the Randall-Sundrum-type…

A Randall-Sundrum-like braneworld scenario is constructed in a 5D extension of the Lorentz-violating massive gravity. The gauge hierarchy problem is solved in current model. The linear perturbations are calculated, and it is found that the…
We present static solutions to Einstein's equations corresponding to branes at various angles intersecting in a single 3-brane. Such configurations may be useful for building models with localized gravity via the Randall-Sundrum mechanism.…
In stark contrast with the three-dimensional case, higher-dimensional Chern-Simons theories can have non-topological, propagating degrees of freedom. Finding those vacua that allow for the propagation of linear perturbations, however,…
This proceedings is based on a talk given at the APS DPF 2013 on an alternative 5-dimensional brane world model which is related to but has some physically distinct features from the Randall-Sundrum brane world model. The spin dependent…
We show that as in abelian gauge fields, nonabelian gauge fields are also trapped on a brane in the Randall-Sundrum model by applying a new mechanism based on topological Higgs mechanism. It is pointed out that although almost massless…
We point out some subtleties with gauge fixings (which sometimes include the so-called ``brane bending'' effects) typically used to compute the graviton propagator on the Randall-Sundrum brane. In particular, the brane, which has…
We investigate a 6d generalized Randall-Sundrum brane world scenario with a bulk cosmological constant. It is shown that each stress-energy tensor $T_{ab}^{i}$ on the brane is similar to a constant vacuum energy. This is consistent with the…
