Large hierarchy from extra dimensions
We argue that the familiar gauge hierarchy between the fundamental Planck scale MP l and the electroweak scaleMW , can be naturally explained in higher dimensional theories with relatively large radii (Rc > 1/MP l) extra dimensions. In particular, we show that it is possible that the electroweak Higgs mass at high energies is of the order of MP l, but radiative corrections drive it to an infrar...
متن کاملBulk torsion fields in theories with large extra dimensions
We study the consequences of spacetime torsion coexisting with gravity in the bulk in scenarios with large extra dimensions. Having linked torsion with the Kalb-Ramond antisymmetric tensor field arising in string theories, we examine its artifacts on the visible 3-brane when the extra dimensions are compactified. It is found that while torsion would have led to parity violation in a 4-dimension...
متن کاملLarge Extra Dimensions from a Small Extra Dimension
Models with extra dimensions have changed our understanding of the hierarchy problem. In general, these models explain the weakness of gravity by diluting gravity in a large bulk volume, or by localizing the graviton away from the standard model. In this paper, we show that the warped geometries necessary for the latter scenario can naturally induce the large volumes necessary for the former. W...
متن کاملShape versus volume: making large flat extra dimensions invisible.
We show that the shape moduli associated with large extra dimensions can have a dramatic effect on the corresponding Kaluza-Klein spectra. Specifically, shape moduli can change the mass gap, induce level crossings, and even interpolate between theories with different numbers of compactified dimensions. We also show that in certain cases it is possible to maintain the ratio between the higher-di...
متن کاملKaluza-Klein States from Large Extra Dimensions
We consider the novel Kaluza-Klein (KK) scenario where gravity propagates in the 4 + n dimensional bulk of spacetime, while gauge and matter fields are confined to the 3 + 1 dimensional world-volume of a brane configuration. For simplicity we assume compactification of the extra n dimensions on a torus with a common scale R, and identify the massive KK states in the four-dimensional spacetime. ...
