No-go theorems on localization of gravity around higher codimensional branes in noncompact extra dimensions

Abstract We study the brane world scenario of a single brane (or a single stack of branes) with codimension higher than one. When the extra dimensions are not small, localization of gravity around the brane is needed in order to reproduce the observable four-dim...
