We consider a 3-brane embedded in a warped 5-dimensional background with a dilaton and a Kalb-Ramond 2-form. We show that it is possible to find static solutions of the form of charged dS/AdS-like black hole with horizon which could have a…
Domain walls arise in theories where there is spontaneous symmetry breaking of a discrete symmetry such as $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$ and are a feature of many BSM models. In this work we consider the possibility of detecting domain walls through…
We revisit the cosmological evolution of domain wall networks, taking advantage of recent improvements in computing power. We carry out high-resolution field theory simulations in two, three and four spatial dimensions to study the effects…
We perform some analytic continuations of the de Sitter thick domain wall solutions obtained in our previous paper hep-th/0201130 in the system of gravity and a scalar field with an axion-like potential. The obtained new solutions represent…
We consider a higher dimensional gravity theory with a negative kinetic energy scalar field and a cosmological constant. We find that the theory admits an exact cosmological solution for the scale factor of our universe. It has the feature…
We study brane cosmology as 4D (4-dimensional) domain wall dynamics in 5D bulk spacetime. For a generic 5D bulk with 3D maximal symmetry, we derive the equation of motion of a domain wall and find that it depends on mass function of the…
The gravitational impact inside and outside of a domain wall is studied in the context of $f(R)$ gravity theory. The function $f(R)$ is found which satisfies the stability conditions. Our results imply that the domain wall may cause…
We demonstrate that the evolution of wall-like inhomogeneities in run-away potentials, characteristic of dynamical supersymmetry breaking and moduli stabilisation, is very similar to the evolution of domain wall networks associated with…
We study multidimensional cosmological models with a higher-dimensional product manifold, that consists of spherical and flat spaces, in the presence of a minimal free scalar field. Dynamical behaviour of the model is analyzed both in…
We show how one can generate domain walls that separate high- and low-density regions with opposite momenta in the ground state of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate using a density-dependent gauge potential. Within a…
We extend the correspondence between adS-supergravities and superconformal field theories on the adS boundary to a correspondence between gauged supergravities (typically with non-compact gauge groups) and quantum field theories on domain…
We investigate the presence of domain walls in models described by three real scalar fields. We search for stable defect structures which minimize the energy of the static field configurations. We work out explict orbits in field space and…
Dynamical systems methods are used to investigate domain-wall solutions of a two-parameter family of models in which gravity is coupled to an axion, and to a dilaton with an exponential potential of either sign. A complete global analysis…
We set forth a new type of phase transition that might take place in gravitational theories whenever higher-curvature corrections are considered. It can be regarded as a sophisticated version of the Hawking-Page transition, mediated by the…
We point out that massive gauged supergravity potentials, for example those arising due to the massive breathing mode of sphere reductions in M-theory or string theory, allow for supersymmetric (static) domain wall solutions which are a…
In this paper, we study the thermodynamic geometry of charged Gauss-Bonnet black holes (and Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m black holes, for the sake of comparison) in AdS: in both $(T,V)$- and $(S,P)$-planes. The thermodynamic phase space is known…
We use Euclidean path integrals to explore the set of bulk asymptotically AdS spacetimes with good CFT duals. We consider simple bottom-up models of bulk physics defined by Einstein-Hilbert gravity coupled to thin domain walls and restrict…
We investigate the critical behaviour of charged and rotating AdS black holes in d spacetime dimensions, including effects from non-linear electrodynamics via the Born-Infeld action, in an extended phase space in which the cosmological…
We investigate the late-time evolution of the Universe within a cosmological model in which dark matter and dark energy are identified with two interacting scalar fields. Using methods of qualitative analysis of dynamical systems, we…
We investigate the semi-classical instability of vacuum domain walls to processes where the domain walls decay by the formation of closed string loop boundaries on their worldvolumes. Intuitively, a wall which is initially spherical may…
