Bent Domain Walls as Braneworlds
We consider domain walls embedded in curved backgrounds as an approximation for braneworld scenarios. We give a large class of new exact solutions, exhausting the possibilities for describing one and two walls for the cases where the curvature of both the bulk and the wall is locally constant. In the case of two walls, we find solutions where each wall has positive tension. An interesting prope...
متن کاملBaryogenesis, Domain Walls and the Role of Gravity
It has been recently speculated that global symmetries are broken by gravity. We propose a scenario for the generation of the baryon asymmetry in the early Universe in which the domain walls predicted by theories with discrete symmetries become unstable due to these Planck scale effects. The relative motion of the decaying walls can provide a mechanism for the departure from thermal equilibrium...
متن کاملBounds on curved domain walls in 5d gravity
We discuss maximally symmetric curved deformations of the flat domain wall solutions of five-dimensional dilaton gravity that appeared in a recent approach to the cosmological constant problem. By analyzing the bulk field configurations and the boundary conditions at a four-dimensional maximally symmetric curved domain wall, we obtain constraints on such solutions. For a special dilaton couplin...
متن کاملDomain walls without cosmological constant in higher order gravity.
We consider a class of higher order corrections in the form of Euler densities of arbitrary rank n to the standard gravity action in D dimensions. We present a generating functional and an explicit form of the conserved energy-momentum tensors. We show that this class of corrections allows for domain-wall solutions despite the presence of higher powers of the curvature. The existence of such so...
متن کاملLepton-flavor violating decays as probes of quantum gravity?
Lepton flavor violating decays Z → μτ and J/Ψ,Υ → μτ are considered. It is shown that these decays can reach sizeable magnitudes if some specific lepton-flavor violating 4-fermion operators are generated by low scale quantum gravity effects, or by some other new physics at a TeV scale.
