Warped Axions
read the original abstract
We study a number of realizations of axions existing in a multi-`throat' generalization of the warped throat geometry of a Randall-Sundrum slice of $AdS_5$. As argued by previous authors, the problem of generating a suitable, phenomenologically allowed Peccei-Quinn scale is simply and elegantly solved by the warping. In compactifications with two or more throats it is possible to simultaneously solve the Standard Model hierarchy problem by the Randall-Sundrum mechanism while implementing interesting warped axion models. The constructions discussed are related to holographic duals of previously studied models of composite axions arising from strongly coupled four-dimensional dynamics.

The structure of multi-axion solutions to the strong CP problem
Multi-axion theories solving the strong CP problem produce varied mass-coupling relations via a general sum rule that depends on the details of PQ symmetry breaking and anomaly alignments.

Axion Quality in Warped Extra-Dimension
Warped extra-dimensional axion models achieve high quality when nonlocal U(1)-charged field effects are sufficiently suppressed by the warp factor and orbifold structure.
