Revamped Braneworld Gravity
Gravity in five-dimensional braneworld backgrounds often exhibits problematic features, including kinetic ghosts, strong coupling, and the vDVZ discontinuity. These problems are an obstacle to producing and analyzing braneworld models with interesting and potentially observable modifications of 4d gravity. We examine these problems in a general AdS5/AdS4 setup with two branes and localized curv...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity: a Mathematical Physics Perspective
1. Introduction The problem of quantum gravity is an old one and over the course of time several distinct lines of thought have evolved. However, for several decades, there was very little communication between the two main communities in this area: particle physicists and gravitation theorists. Indeed, there was a lack of agreement on even what the key problems are. By and large, particle phys...
متن کاملBraneworld gravity: Influence of the moduli fields
We consider the case of a generic braneworld geometry in the presence of one or more moduli fields (e.g., the dilaton) that vary throughout the bulk spacetime. Working in an arbitrary conformal frame, using the generalized junction conditions of gr-qc/0008008 and the Gauss–Codazzi equations, we derive the effective “induced” on-brane gravitational equations. As usual in braneworld scenarios, th...
متن کاملGravity beyond linear perturbations in the braneworld
In the present paper, we briefly review recent studies of second-order gravitational perturbations in braneworld models. After we consider the possibility of pathological behavior of gravity at higher orders of perturbation, second-order perturbations are discussed in Randall-Sundrum braneworld models. Because the mass spectra in these braneworld models are different, we analyze them using diff...
متن کاملThe Interval Approach to Braneworld Gravity
Gravity in five-dimensional braneworld backgrounds may exhibit extra scalar degrees of freedom with problematic features, including kinetic ghosts and strong coupling behavior. Analysis of such effects is hampered by the standard heuristic approaches to braneworld gravity, which use the equations of motion as the starting point, supplemented by orbifold projections and junction conditions. Here...
