Localized Gravity on Branes in anti-de Sitter Spaces
Edi Halyo
We discuss the conditions under which 4D gravity is localized on domain walls in 5D anti-de Sitter spaces. Our approach is based on considering the limits in which the localized gr…
Late D-term Inflation and the Cosmological Moduli Problem in TeV Scale Strings
Edi Halyo
We show that a short period of late D-term inflation can solve the cosmological moduli (radion) problem of (asymmetric) inflation at the TeV scale. Late inflation happens after the…
Mirage Gauge Coupling Unification and TeV Scale Strings
Edi Halyo
We consider gauge coupling unification in models with TeV scale strings and large compact dimensions realized as type IIB string orientifolds. Following an observation by Ibanez we…
Moduli Forces in String Models with Large Internal Dimensions
Edi Halyo
We estimate the strength and range of forces mediated by string moduli in type I string models with two (or more) large internal dimensions. We find that forces mediated by twisted…
D--term Inflation at the TeV Scale and Large Internal Dimensions
Edi Halyo
We show that D--term inflation at the TeV scale is possible in the presence of large internal dimensions. This requires very small couplings and masses which arise from the large s…
D-term Inflation in Type I String Theory
Edi Halyo
D-term inflation realized in heterotic string theory has two problems: the scale of the anomalous D-term is too large for accounting for COBE data and the coupling constant of the…
