The Emergence of Localized Gravity

Matthew D. Schwartz, Joseph Henry Laboratories

Open publisher page 33 citations

Abstract

We explore physics on the boundary of a Randall-Sundrum type model when the brane tension is slightly sub-critical. We calculate the masses of the Kaluza-Klein decomposition of the graviton and use a toy model to show how localized gravity emerges as the brane tension becomes critical. Finally, we discuss some aspects of the boundary conformal field theory and the AdS/CFT correspondence.
