Localization of graviphoton and graviscalar on the brane

The question of whether the Kaluza-Klein (KK) graviphoton h 5µ and graviscalar h 55 are localized or not on the brane is one of the important issues. In this letter, we address this problem in five dimensions. Here we consider the massless (zero-mode) propagations without requiring the Z 2-symmetry on h 5µ. We obtain the graviton h µν , graviphoton, and graviscalar exchange amplitudes on shell. We find that the graviscalar has a tachyonic mass. It turns out that h 5µ admits the localized zero-modes on the brane while h 55 does not have a localized zero-mode. This is contrasted to the fact that the bulk spin-0 field has a localized zero-mode on the brane but the bulk spin-1 field does not have a localized solution in five dimensions.
