We consider a planar gravitating thick domain wall of the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory as a spacetime with finite thickness glued to two vacuum spacetimes on each side of it. Darmois junction conditions written on the boundaries of the thick…
We present a general proof on the equivalence of the comoving-coordinate approach, where the wall is fixed at a constant coordinate variable, and moving-wall approach, where the wall is moving in a background static space-time, in the…
We discuss thick domain walls interpolating between spaces with naked singularities and give arguments based on the $AdS$/CFT correspondence why such singularities may be physically meaningful. Our examples include thick domain walls with…
We analyse the distributional thin wall limit of self gravitating scalar field configurations representing thick domain wall geometries. We show that thick wall solutions can be generated by appropiate scaling of the thin wall ones, and…
Domain wall - type solution with oscillating thickness in a real, scalar field model is investigated with the help of a polynomial approximation. We propose a simple extension of the polynomial approximation method. In this approach we…
We investigate a self-gravitating thick domain wall for a $\lambda \Phi^4$ potential. The system of scalar and Einstein equations admits two types of non-trivial solutions: domain wall solutions and false vacuum-de Sitter solutions. The…
We investigate the spacetime of a thick gravitating domain wall for a general potential $V(\Phi)$. Using general analytical arguments we show that all nontrivial solutions fall into two categories: those interpretable as an isolated domain…
This paper studies Thick domain wall within the framework of Lyra geometry. Their exact solutions are obtained in the background of a five dimensional space-time. The space-time is nonsingular in its both spatial and temporal behavior. The…
Numerical simulations are performed of the gravitational collapse of a scalar field with a \lambda \phi^4 potential. Comparisons are made with the thin shell approximation.
A distributional method to solve the Einstein's field equations for thin shells is formulated. The familiar field equations and jump conditions of Darmois-Israel formalism are derived. A carefull analysis of the Bianchi identities shows…
We present the GRjunction package which allows boundary surfaces and thin-shells in general relativity to be studied with a computer algebra system. Implementing the Darmois-Israel thin shell formalism requires a careful selection of…
We study the dynamics of bubble wall in five-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity in the thin-wall approximation. The motion of the domain wall is determined by the generalized Israel junction condition. We find a solution where the wall of…
The Israel junction conditions of a thin shell in the context of Einstein-Cartan gravity are revisited. It is shown that with a choice of the torsion discontinuity taken to be orthogonal to the hypersurface and consistent with the…
In spacetimes of dimension greater than four it is natural to consider higher order (in R) corrections to the Einstein equations. In this letter generalized Israel junction conditions for a membrane in such a theory are derived. This is…
We construct an explicit model of gravity trapping domain wall potential where for the first time we can study explicitly the graviton wave function fluctuations for any thickness of the domain wall. A concrete form of the potential depends…
Taking advantage of the conformal equivalence of f(R) theories of gravity with General Relativity coupled to a scalar field we generalize the Israel junction conditions for this class of theories by direct integration of the field…
Here we build some effective boundary conditions to be used in numerical calculations in order to avoid the thin meshing usually required in problems involving Hartmann layers near a locally plane wall. Wall model are provided for both…
We demonstrate that for some certain values of parameters of the $(1+1)$-dimensional $\varphi^8$ model, the kink solutions can be found from polynomial equations. For some selected values of the parameters we give the explicit formulas for…
We show that the spacetimes of domain wall solutions to the coupled Einstein-scalar field equations with a given scalar field potential fall into two classes, depending on whether or not reflection symmetry on the wall is imposed. Solutions…
We consider the Cahn-Hilliard equation with Neumann boundary conditions in a three-dimensional curved thin domain around a given closed surface. When the thickness of the curved thin domain tends to zero, we show that the weighted average…
