Gravity localization with a domain wall junction in six dimensions
نویسنده
چکیده
We study gravity localization in the context of a six-dimensional gravity model coupled with complex scalar fields. With a supergravity-motivated scalar potential, we show that the domain wall junction solutions localize a four-dimensional massless graviton under an assumption on the wall profile. We find that unlike the global supersymmetric model, contributions to the junction tension cancel locally with gravitational contributions. The wall tension vanishes due to the metric suppression.

Localizing gravity on a ’t Hooft-Polyakov monopole in seven dimensions
We present regular solutions for a brane world scenario in the form of a ’t HooftPolyakov monopole living in the three-dimensional spherical symmetric transverse space of a seven-dimensional spacetime. In contrast to the cases of a domain-wall in five dimensions and a string in six dimensions, there exist gravity-localizing solutions for both signs of the bulk cosmological constant. A detailed ...
متن کاملBrane localization of gravity in higher derivative theory
We consider a class of higher order corrections in the form of Euler densities of arbitrary rank n to the standard gravity action in D dimensions. We have previously shown that this class of corrections allows for domain wall solutions despite the presence of higher powers of the curvature. In the present paper we explicitly solve the linearized equation of motion for gravity fluctuations aroun...
متن کاملLocalization of Gravity on Dilatonic Domain Walls: Addendum to “Solitons in Brane Worlds”
We supplement the discussion on localization of gravity on dilatonic domain walls in “Solitons in Brane Worlds” (Nucl. Phys. B576, 106, hep-th/9911218) by giving unified and coherent discussion which combines the result of this paper and the expanded results in the author’s subsequent papers in an attempt to avoid misleading readers. We also discuss the possible string theory embeddings of the ...
متن کاملBPS Domain Wall Junctions in Infinitely Large Extra Dimensions
We consider models of scalar fields coupled to gravity which are higher-dimensional generalizations of four dimensional supergravity. We use these models to describe domain wall junctions in an antide Sitter background. We derive Bogomolnyi equations for the scalar fields from which the walls are constructed and for the metric. From these equations a BPS-like formula for the junction energy can...
متن کاملAn Exact Solution of BPS Junctions and Its Properties
We have obtained an exact solution for the BPS domain wall junction for a N = 1 supersymmetric theory in four dimensions and studied its properties. The model is a simplified version of the N = 2 SU(2) gauge theory with Nf = 1 broken to N = 1 by the mass of the adjoint chiral superfield. We define mode equations and demonstrate explicitly that fermion and boson with the same mass have to come i...
