Asymmetrically Warped Spacetimes
We investigate spacetimes in which the speed of light along flat 4D sections varies over the extra dimensions due to different warp factors for the space and the time coordinates (“asymmetrically warped” spacetimes). The main property of such spaces is that while the induced metric is flat, implying Lorentz invariant particle physics on a brane, bulk gravitational effects will cause apparent vi...
متن کاملStability of Doubly Warped Product Spacetimes
Nonlinear stability for a class of doubly warped spacetimes is proved. The background spacetimes have negative Einstein factors. It shown that for dimension D ≥ 11 there is a full parameter family of solutions to the vacuum Einstein equations which has Kasner-like singularity and Friedmann like asympotics in the future. In particular, these spacetimes have crushing singularity and are globally ...
متن کاملProperties of branes in curved spacetimes
A generic property of curved manifolds is the existence of focal points. We show that branes located at focal points of the geometry satisfy special properties. Examples of backgrounds to which our discussion applies are AdSm×S and plane wave backgrounds. As an example, we show that a pair of AdS2 branes located at the north and south pole of the S5 in AdS5×S are half supersymmetric and that th...
متن کاملSpinflation and Cycling Branes in Warped Throats
The implications of brane motion in angular directions of Calabi-Yau flux compactifications are discussed from the point of view of an observer living on the worldvolume of the brane and from the point of view of an observer living elsewhere in the three non-compact dimensions. The brane observer can experience cosmological bounces and cyclic behavior of the scale factor induced by centrifugal ...
متن کاملBranes in AdS and pp-wave spacetimes
We find half supersymmetric AdS-embeddings in AdS5 × S5 corresponding to all quarter BPS orthogonal intersections of D3-branes with Dp-branes. A particular case is the Karch-Randall embedding AdS4 × S2. We explicitly prove that these embeddings are supersymmetric by showing that the kappa symmetry projections are compatible with half of the target space Killing spinors and argue that all these ...
