We present thick de Sitter brane solutions which are supported by two interacting {\it phantom} scalar fields in five-, six- and seven-dimensional spacetime. It is shown that for all cases regular solutions with anti-de Sitter asymptotic…
The approximate late conformal time wavefunction for self-interacting scalar quantum fields in de Sitter space is computed. It dominates for conformal times much larger than a certain critical value, $\eta=\eta_{\text{crit}}$ which depends…

Standard zeta function regularisation enforces a scale-independent prescription for spectral aggregation, effectively fixing the relative weight of spectral contributions. We relax this constraint by replacing the derivative at $s=0$ with a…
