Locally Localized Gravity and Geometric Transitions

D. Bazeia, F. A. Brito, A. R. Gomes

In this paper we analyze the local localization of gravity in thick brane embedded in space. The 3-brane is modelled by domain wall solution of a theory with a bulk…

Nonrelativistic Quantum Analysis of the Charged Particle-Dyon System on a Conical Spacetime

A. L. Cavalcanti de Oliveira, E. R. Bezerra de Mello

In this paper we develop the nonrelativistic quantum analysis of the charged particle-dyon system in the spacetime produced by an idealized cosmic string. In order to do that, we a…

Photon deflection by a Coulomb field in noncommutative QED

C. A. de S. Pires

In noncommutative QED photons present self-interactions in the form of triple and quartic interactions. The triple interaction implies that, even though the photon is electrically…

On the Lorentz symmetry of the noncommutative chiral bosons

E. M. C. Abreu, R. Menezes, C. Wotzasek

We study issues of Lorentz violation symmetry in the context of the recently proposed theory of noncommutative fields \cite{CCGM}, using the soldering formalism. To this end a nonc…

Defect structures in sine-Gordon-like models

D. Bazeia, L. Losano, R. Menezes

We investigate several models described by real scalar fields, searching for topological defects. Some models are described by a single field, and support one or two topological se…

Self-Interactions in the Spacetime of a Scalar-Tensor Cosmic String

I. V. L. Costa, F. A. Oliveira, M. E. X. Guimaraes +1

We study the effect of the geometry and topology of a scalar-tensor cosmic string space-time on the electric and magnetic fields of line sources. It is shown that the dilatonic cou…

Some boundary effects in quantum field theory

V. B. Bezerra, M. A. Rego-Monteiro

We have constructed a quantum field theory in a finite box, with periodic boundary conditions, using the hypothesis that particles living in a finite box are created and/or annihil…

AdS and stabilized extra dimensions in multidimensional gravitational models with nonlinear scalar curvature terms 1/R and R^4

Uwe Guenther, Alexander Zhuk, Valdir Bezerra +1

We study multidimensional gravitational models with scalar curvature nonlinearities of the type 1/R and R^4. It is assumed that the corresponding higher dimensional spacetime manif…

Squared-field amplitude modulus and radiation intensity nonequivalence within nonlinear slabs

Alberto Lencina, Pablo Vaveliuk

This paper presents a novel approach to wave propagation inside the Fabry-Perot framework. It states that the time-averaged Poynting vector modulus could be nonequivalent with the…

On the control of the lateral Casimir force between corrugated surfaces

E. V. Blagov, G. L. Klimchitskaya, U. Mohideen +1

The general perturbative expression for the lateral Casimir force between two plates covered by longitudinal corrugations of arbitrary shape is obtained. This expression is applica…

New results for deformed defects

C. A. Almeida, D. Bazeia, L. Losano +1

We extend a deformation prescription recently introduced and present some new soluble nonlinear problems for kinks and lumps. In particular, we show how to generate models which pr…

Lorentz-breaking effects in scalar-tensor theories of gravity

V. B. Bezerra, C. N. Ferreira, J. A. Helayel-Neto

In this work, we study the effects of breaking Lorentz symmetry in scalar-tensor theories of gravity taking torsion into account. We show that a space-time with torsion interacting…

Velocity Distribution in a Viscous Granular Gas

Alexandre Rosas, Daniel ben-Avraham, Katja Lindenberg

We investigate the velocity relaxation of a viscous one-dimensional granular gas, that is, one in which neither energy nor momentum is conserved in a collision. Of interest is the…
