Induced Gravity on RS Branes
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is shown that a localized four-dimensional Einstein term, induced by quantum corrections, modifies significantly the law of gravity in a Randall-Sundrum brane world. In particular, the short-distance behavior of gravity changes from fiveto four-dimensional, while, depending on the values of parameters, there can be an intermediate range where gravity behaves as in five dimensions. The spectrum of graviton fluctuations around the brane, their relative importance for the gravitational force, and the relevance of their emission in the bulk for the brane cosmology are analysed. Finally, constraints on parameters are derived from energy loss in astrophysical and particle physics processes.

Completely localized gravity with higher curvature terms
In the intersecting braneworld models, higher curvature corrections to the Einstein action are necessary to provide a non-trivial geometry (brane tension) at the brane junctions. By introducing such terms in a Gauss-Bonnet form, we give an effective description of localized gravity on the singular delta-function branes. There exists a non-vanishing brane tension at the four-dimensional brane in...
متن کاملString theory provides landmarks fixing RS branes’ positions: Possibility to deduce large mass hierarchy from small numbers
Two-branes RS-I 5-dimensional model is generalized in higher dimensional string-induced theory with dilaton and n-form field. It is supposed that ”hidden” and ”visible” Randall-Sundrum branes are located at the boundaries of region of space-time where low-energy supergravity description is valid. This permits to determine mass scale hierarchy which calculated value proves to be strongly depende...
متن کاملA New Perspective on DGP Gravity
We examine brane induced gravity on codimension-1 branes, a.k.a DGP gravity, as a theory of five-dimensional gravity containing a certain class of fourdimensional branes. From this perspective, the model suffers from a number of pathologies which went unnoticed before. By generalizing the 5D geometry from Minkowski to Schwarzschild, we find that when the bulk mass is large enough, the brane hit...
متن کاملde Sitter Brane Gravity: from Close-Up to Panorama
We find explicitly the induced graviton propagator on de Sitter branes embedded in various five-dimensional spacetimes; de Sitter branes in AdS and Minkowski space are particular cases. By studying the structure of the momentum-space propagator, we are able to extract interesting physics, much of which is qualitatively different from that of flat branes. We find that 1) there can be a set of gr...
متن کاملInduced gravity on intersecting brane-worlds Part II: Cosmology
We explore cosmology of intersecting braneworlds with induced gravity on the branes. We find the cosmological equations that control the evolution of a moving codimension one brane and a codimension two brane that sits at the intersection. We study the Friedmann equation at the intersection, finding new contributions from the six dimensional bulk. These higher dimensional contributions allow us...
