4D Gravity on a Brane in 5D Minkowski Space
read the original abstract
We suggest a mechanism by which four-dimensional Newtonian gravity emerges on a 3-brane in 5D Minkowski space with an infinite size extra dimension. The worldvolume theory gives rise to the correct 4D potential at short distances whereas at large distances the potential is that of a 5D theory. We discuss some phenomenological issues in this framework.

Studying spherical collapse and its implications in the Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity theory
In EiBI gravity, spherical collapse yields lower linear thresholds, higher turnaround and virial overdensities, and modestly smaller turnaround radii than in ΛCDM, with effects increasing with the coupling κ̂_BI.

Radio sirens: inferring $H_0$ with binary black holes and neutral hydrogen in the era of the Einstein Telescope and the SKA Observatory
Using simulated binary black hole mergers and neutral hydrogen maps, the radio sirens method constrains H0 to 8% precision with 3000 high-SNR events, offering a 90% improvement over standard dark siren analyses.

Studying spherical collapse and its implications in the Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity theory
In EiBI gravity, spherical collapse needs regularized density profiles to handle singular gradient terms, yielding a lower linear collapse threshold, higher turnaround and virial overdensities, and slightly smaller tu...

Two types of quasinormal modes of Casadio-Fabbri-Mazzacurati brane-world black holes
Quasinormal modes of massive scalars in CFM brane-world black holes split into two types, with modes disappearing at critical masses where real or imaginary frequency parts reach zero.

Testing Scale-Dependent Modified Gravity with DESI DR1
DESI DR1 constrains the modified gravity parameter to log10 |f_R0| < -4.59 at 95% CL, implying no detectable fifth force on scales below about 18 Mpc.

Galaxy and halo angular clustering in LCDM and Modified Gravity cosmologies
N-body light-cone mocks show 2-4 sigma deviations in third-order angular clustering between LCDM and f(R)/nDGP models at z=0.15-0.3 for halos and galaxies, with stronger signals in the dark-matter field.
