New results for cuscuton multi-field brane

Abstract We investigate braneworld models in the presence of the several scalar fields with generalized dynamics. A new mechanism to control the internal structure of brane in modified gravity is used to induce changes in the models in the presence of cuscuton dynamics. Examples with two- and three-...

Description
Summary:Abstract We investigate braneworld models in the presence of the several scalar fields with generalized dynamics. A new mechanism to control the internal structure of brane in modified gravity is used to induce changes in the models in the presence of cuscuton dynamics. Examples with two- and three-field are considered, and we have found that the inclusion of the cuscuton can significantly alter the profile of the brane, causing unique changes in the warp factor, energy density, stability potential and the corresponding zero mode.
