Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in the Brane-World
نویسنده
چکیده
A simplified Randall-Sundrum-like model in 6 dimensions is discussed. The extra two dimensions correspond to the cone. The effective four-dimensional scalar self-interacting theory is studied at one-loop level. The contributions due to 6-dimensional parameters in four-dimensional beta-functions appear. Using such beta-functions the oneloop effective potential is calculated. The possibility of spontaneous symmetry breaking due to extra dimensions is demonstrated.

Incidental Brane Defects
In the models of brane construction, the isometry of a compactified space might be broken by branes. In four-dimensional effective Lagrangian, the breaking of the isometry is seen as the spontaneous breaking of the corresponding effective symmetry. Then it seems natural to expect that there are various kinds of defects that will be implemented by the spontaneous symmetry breaking. These defects...
متن کاملBrane-induced supersymmetry breaking
We study spontaneous supersymmetry breaking induced by brane-localized dynamics in five-dimensional supergravity compactified on S/Z2. We consider a model with gravity in the bulk and matter localized on tensionless branes at the orbifold fixed points. We assume that the brane dynamics give rise to effective brane superpotentials that trigger the supersymmetry breaking. We analyze in detail the...
متن کاملBranes and the Dynamics of Qcd
A brane configuration is described that is relevant to understanding the dynamics of N = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Confinement and spontaneous breaking of a discrete chiral symmetry can be understood as consequences of the topology of the brane. Because of the symmetry breaking, there can be domain walls separating different vacua; the QCD string can end on such a domain wall. The mod...
متن کاملSeparation of Spontaneous Chiral Symmetry Breaking and Confinement via AdS/CFT Correspondence
We analyze, in the framework of AdS/CFT correspondence, the gauge theory phase structure that are supposed to be dual to the recently found non-supersymmetric dilatonic deformations to AdS5 × S5 in type IIB string theory. Analyzing the probe D7-brane dynamics in the backgrounds of our interest, which corresponds to the fundamental N = 2 hypermultiplet, we show that the chiral bi-fermion condens...
متن کاملGauge Unification via Stable Brane Recombination
We study the transition between parallel and intersecting branes on a torus. Spontaneous symmetry breaking of nonabelian gauge symmetry is understood as brane separation, and a more general intermediate deformation is discussed. We argue that there exists supersymmetry preserving transition and we can always have parallel branes as a final state. The transition is interpreted due to dynamics of...
