Thick brane split caused by spacetime torsion

Abstract: In this paper we apply the five-dimensional fðTÞ gravity with fðTÞ ¼ T þ kT n to brane scenario to explore the solutions under a given warp factor, and we find that the analytic domain wall solution will be a double-kink solution when the geometric effect of spacetime torsion is strongly enhanced. We also investigate the localization of fermion fields on the split branes corresponding to the double-kink solution.

“…The authors of Ref. [49] considered the case of f (T ) = T + αT n and found that the brane will have a split with the increasing of the parameter |α|, which is similar to the case of f (R) brane [24,51,52]. In Ref.…”

“…In contrast with the standard kink, compactons only support massive states bounded to it [10,11,17,18]. Another interesting result appears in the recent work [19], where one identifies the thick brane splitting caused by the spacetime torsion.…”

“…In the thick brane world scenario, the brane can be a domain wall generated by a background scalar field [37][38][39][53][54][55][56][57][58] or by pure geometry in a co-dimension one space-time [59][60][61][62][63]. On the other hand, it is shown that in some cases thick branes may have inner structure, which may lead to new phenomenon in the resonance and the localization of gravity and matter fields [64][65][66][67][68][69]. Thus, it is natural to generate domain wall by the mimetic scalar field, and the new degree of freedoms allows us to construct new type of thick branes.…”
