Self-accelerating Warped Braneworlds
Marcela Carena, Joseph Lykken, Minjoon Park +1
Braneworld models with induced gravity have the potential to replace dark energy as the explanation for the current accelerating expansion of the Universe. The original model of Dv…
Revamped Braneworld Gravity
Ruoyu Bao, Marcela Carena, Joseph Lykken +2
Gravity in five-dimensional braneworld backgrounds often exhibits problematic features, including kinetic ghosts, strong coupling, and the vDVZ discontinuity. These problems are an…
Unconventional cosmology on the (thick) brane
Ignacio Navarro, Jose Santiago
We consider the cosmology of a thick codimension 1 brane. We obtain the matching conditions leading to the cosmological evolution equations and show that when one includes matter w…
Gravity on codimension 2 brane worlds
Ignacio Navarro, Jose Santiago
We compute the matching conditions for a general thick codimension 2 brane, a necessary previous step towards the investigation of gravitational phenomena in codimension 2 branewor…
Higher codimension braneworlds from intersecting branes
Ignacio Navarro, Jose Santiago
We study the matching conditions of intersecting brane worlds in Lovelock gravity in arbitrary dimension. We show that intersecting various codimension 1 and/or codimension 2 brane…
Einstein gravity on the codimension 2 brane?
Paul Bostock, Ruth Gregory, Ignacio Navarro +1
We look at general braneworlds in six-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We find the general matching conditions for the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet braneworld, which remarkably…
