Thick Braneworlds and the Gibbons-Kallosh-Linde No-go Theorem in the Gauss-Bonnet Framework
M. Dias, J. M. Hoff da Silva, and Roldao da Rocha
TL;DR
This paper extends sum rules for thick braneworlds to include Gauss-Bonnet terms and proposes a periodic extra dimension scenario to generate thick branes, bypassing the Gibbons-Kallosh-Linde no-go theorem.
Contribution
It introduces a new framework incorporating Gauss-Bonnet terms into thick brane sum rules and presents a periodic extra dimension model to evade the no-go theorem.
Findings
Sum rules for thick braneworlds with Gauss-Bonnet terms are constructed.
A periodic extra dimension scenario enables thick brane generation.
The approach circumvents the Gibbons-Kallosh-Linde no-go theorem.
Abstract
The sum rules related to thick braneworlds are constructed, in order to encompass Gauss-Bonnet terms. The generation of thick branes is hence proposed in a periodic extra dimension scenario, what circumvents the Gibbons-Kallosh-Linde no-go theorem in this context.
