Kinky brane worlds
We present a toy model for five-dimensional heterotic M theory where bulk three-branes, originating in 11 dimensions from M five-branes, are modeled as kink solutions of a bulk scalar field theory. It is shown that the vacua of this defect model correspond to a class of topologically distinct M-theo...
