The M 2 - brane Solution of Heterotic M - theory with the Gauss - Bonnet R 2 terms
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the effective action of M-theory compactified on a S/Z2 orbifold with R2 interaction in the Gauss-Bonnet combination. We derive equations of motion with source terms arising from the Gauss-Bonnet terms and find the M2-brane solution up to order κ2/3. It receives a correction which depends on the orbifold coordinate in the same form as the gauge 5-brane solution. ∗[email protected]

Assuming an Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravitation in a (D ≥ 5)-dimensional spacetime with boundary, we consider the problem of the boundary dynamics given the matter Lagrangian on it. The resulting equation is applied in particular on the derivation of the Friedmann equation of a 3-brane, understood as the non-orientable boundary of a 5d spacetime. We briefly discuss the contradictory con...

متن کاملEffective warped brane-world compactification with a Gauss-Bonnet term
By including a Gauss-Bonnet interaction term into the brane-world effective action we give linear and non-linear treatments of the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity in warped spacetimes, where spacetime background can be described as a 3-brane embedded in an anti-de Sitter space of dimensions D ≥ 5 or as an intersection of higher dimensional branes with a four-dimensional brane intersection. Basica...
متن کاملGauss-Bonnet Brane World Gravity with a Scalar Field
The effective four-dimensional, linearised gravity of a brane world model with one extra dimension and a single brane is analysed [1, 2]. The model includes higher order curvature terms (such as the Gauss-Bonnet term) and a conformally coupled scalar field. Large and small distance gravitational laws are derived. In contrast to the corresponding Einstein gravity models, it is possible to obtain...
متن کاملCosmic acceleration from asymmetric branes
We consider a single 3-brane sitting in between two different five dimensional spacetimes. On each side of the brane, the bulk is a solution to GaussBonnet gravity, although the bare cosmological constant, fundamental Planck scale, and Gauss-Bonnet coupling can differ. This asymmetry leads to weighted junction conditions across the brane and interesting brane cosmology. We focus on two special ...
