abstract

Conventional wisdom states that Newton's force law implies only four non-compact dimensions. We demonstrate that this is not necessarily true in the presence of a non-factorizable background geometry. The specific example we study is a single 3-brane embedded in five dimensions. We show that even without a gap in the Kaluza-Klein spectrum, four-dimensional Newtonian and general relativistic gravity is reproduced to more than adequate precision.

Replica Wormholes and the Entropy of Hawking Radiation

hep-th · 2019-11-27 · accept · novelty 8.0

Replica wormholes in the gravitational path integral yield the island rule for the fine-grained entropy of Hawking radiation, ensuring it follows the unitary Page curve in two-dimensional dilaton gravity.

The Page curve of Hawking radiation from semiclassical geometry

hep-th · 2019-08-29 · accept · novelty 8.0

Hawking radiation entropy follows the Page curve when quantum extremal surfaces are identified with RT/HRT surfaces in a higher-dimensional holographic dual, making the black hole interior part of the radiation's entanglement wedge.

Alice in Warpland: KK modes, Warped Compactifications and the Swampland

hep-th · 2026-03-11 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

In codimension-one warped compactifications with exponential potentials, the KK mass decay rate λ_KK is reduced by warping but still satisfies the Sharpened Distance Conjecture precisely when the higher-dimensional potential obeys the Strong de Sitter condition.

Strongly Coupled Sectors in Inflation: Gapped Theories of Unparticles

hep-th · 2025-12-29 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Compactified 5D unparticle theories generate gapped excitations whose exchange in inflationary correlators yields oscillations modulated by anomalous dimensions and possible interference patterns under brane-localized interactions.

Strongly Coupled Sectors in Inflation: Gapless Theories and Unparticles

hep-th · 2025-03-22 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Computes inflationary bispectra and trispectra from tree-level unparticle exchanges using Mellin-Barnes methods and symmetry-based differential equations, revealing that full shapes are needed to distinguish unparticles from light particles.

Cosmic Inflation From Regular Black Holes

gr-qc · 2026-04-06 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Regular black holes in the bulk of quasi-topological gravity drive a de Sitter inflationary phase on the brane at small scales, with e-fold number set by the ratio of black hole radius to higher-curvature scale.

Massive Graviton Dark Matter from a Gapped Continuum

hep-th · 2026-07-08 · conditional · novelty 6.0

Radiative corrections pull an isolated, long-lived massive graviton out of the gapped linear-dilaton continuum, giving a sub-MeV dark-matter candidate that can coexist with a holographic fluid component.

On Black Holes Surrounded by Radiation: I. Classical Considerations

hep-th · 2026-06-29 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Presents classical GR solutions for black holes enveloped by ultra-relativistic orbiting particle shells that extend the photon sphere to arbitrary depth while remaining optically indistinguishable from standard black holes.

Probing Confining Dark Sectors with Cosmological Perturbations

hep-ph · 2026-06-23 · conditional · novelty 6.0

Composite dark matter from a keV–MeV confining phase transition sources an IR-enhanced curvature spectrum that competes with free-streaming suppression, yielding concrete CMB and Lyman-α bounds on transition strength and temperature.

Covariant Locally Localized Gravity and vDVZ Continuity

hep-th · 2026-04-30 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

In the Karch-Randall braneworld the zero-graviton-mass limit of the one-loop partition function is a massless graviton plus a decoupled massive vector, not the pure Randall-Sundrum II model.

Quasinormal modes of scalar perturbations in Rastall thick brane

gr-qc · 2026-07-07 · conditional · novelty 5.0

The graviscalar quasinormal mode spectrum and late-time power-law tails of a Rastall thick brane are computed numerically, showing that the Rastall parameter λ controls mode lifetimes and tail exponents.
