On the stability of thick brane worlds non-minimally coupled to gravity
A. A. Andrianov, Luca Vecchi
We analyze a class of 5D models where a 3 brane is generated by a bulk scalar field non minimally coupled to gravity. We show that perturbative stability of such branes is normally…

Massive states as the relevant deformations of gravitating branes
Luca Vecchi
Five-dimensional theories manifesting spontaneous brane generation are discussed in a gravitational context. Without gravity, the IR dynamics of the brane fluctuation below the bra…
