Gravitational Forces on a Codimension-2 Brane
C. P. Burgess, L. van Nierop, M. Williams
We compute the gravitational response of six dimensional gauged, chiral supergravity to localized stress energy on one of two space-filling branes, including the effects of compact…
Distributed SUSY Breaking: Dark Energy, Newton's Law and the LHC
C. P. Burgess, L. van Nierop, M. Williams
We identify the underlying symmetry mechanism that suppresses the low-energy effective 4D cosmological constant within 6D supergravity models, leading to results suppressed by powe…
Accidental SUSY: Enhanced Bulk Supersymmetry from Brane Back-reaction
C. P. Burgess, L. van Nierop, S. Parameswaran +2
We compute how bulk loops renormalize both bulk and brane effective interactions for codimension-two branes in 6D gauged chiral supergravity, as functions of the brane tension and…
Running with Rugby Balls: Bulk Renormalization of Codimension-2 Branes
M. Williams, C. P. Burgess, L. van Nierop +1
We compute how one-loop bulk effects renormalize both bulk and brane effective interactions for geometries sourced by codimension-two branes. We do so by explicitly integrating out…
On Brane Back-Reaction and de Sitter Solutions in Higher-Dimensional Supergravity
C. P. Burgess, Anshuman Maharana, L. van Nierop +2
We argue that the problem of finding lower-dimensional de Sitter solutions to the classical field equations of higher-dimensional supergravity necessarily requires understanding th…
Sculpting the Extra Dimensions: Inflation from Codimension-2 Brane Back-reaction
Leo van Nierop, C. P. Burgess
We construct an inflationary model in 6D supergravity that is based on explicit time-dependent solutions to the full higher-dimensional field equations, back-reacting to the presen…
