We study the braneworld theory constructed by multi scalar fields. The model contains a smooth and infinitely large extra dimension, allowing the background fields propagating in it. We give a de Sitter solution for the four-dimensional cosmology as a good approximation to the early universe inflation. We show that the graviton has a localizable massless mode, and a series of continuous massive modes, separated by a mass gap. There could be a normalizable massive mode, depending on the background solution. The gravitational waves of massless mode evolve the same as the four dimensional theory, while that of the massive modes evolve greatly different from the massless mode.

We propose a codimension two warped braneworld model within the teleparallel [Formula: see text] gravity. Asymptotically, the bulk geometry converges to an [Formula: see text] spacetime whose cosmological constant is produced by the torsion parameters. Furthermore, the torsion induces an AdS-dS transition on the exterior region. As the torsion parameters vary, the brane undergoes a phase transition from a thick string-like brane into ring-like structures. The bulk-brane Planck mass ration is modified by the torsion. The analysis of the stress–energy condition reveals a splitting brane process satisfying the weak and strong–energy conditions for some values of the parameters. In addition, we investigate the behavior of the gravitational perturbations in this scenario. It turns out that the gravitational spectrum has a linear behavior for small masses and is independent of the torsion parameters for large masses. In the bulk, the torsion keeps a gapless nonlocalizable and stable tower of massive modes. Inside the brane core, the torsion produces new barriers and potential wells leading to small amplitude massive modes and a massless mode localized around the ring structures.

Braneworld models are interesting theoretical and phenomenological frameworks to search for new physics beyond the standard model of particles and cosmology. In this work, we discuss braneworld models whose gravitational dynamics is governed by teleparallel [Formula: see text] gravities. Here, we emphasize a codimension two-axisymmetric model, also known as a string-like brane. Likewise, in the 5D domain-wall models, the [Formula: see text] gravitational modification leads to a phase transition on the perfect fluid source providing a brane-splitting mechanism. Furthermore, the torsion changes the gravitational perturbations. The torsion produces new potential wells inside the brane core leading to a massless mode more localized around the ring structures. In addition, the torsion keeps a gapless nonlocalizable and a stable tower of massive modes in the bulk.

We consider a static brane in the background of a topological black hole in arbitrary dimensions. For hyperbolic horizons, we find a solution only when the black hole mass assumes its minimum negative value. In this case, the tension of the brane vanishes, and the brane position coincides with the location of the horizon. For an elliptic horizon, we show that the massless mode of Randall–Sundrum is recovered in the limit of large black hole mass.

We compute the one-loop polarization tensor Π for the on-shell, massless mode in a thermalized SU(2) Yang–Mills theory being in its deconfining phase. Postulating that [Formula: see text], we discuss Π's effect on the low-momentum part of the black-body spectrum at temperatures ~2,…,4 T CMB where T CMB ~ 2.73 K . A table-top experiment is proposed to test the above postulate. As an application, we point out a possible connection with the stability of dilute, cold, and old innergalactic atomic hydrogen clouds. We also compute the two-loop correction to the pressure arising from the instantaneous massless mode in unitary-Coulomb gauge, which formerly was neglected, and present improved estimates for subdominant corrections.

We discuss the future of gravitational theories in the framework of gravitational wave (GW) astronomy after the recent GW detections (the events GW150914, GW151226, GW170104, GW170814, GW170817 and GW170608). In particular, a calculation of the frequency and angular dependent response function that a GW detector would see if massive modes from [Formula: see text] theories or scalar–tensor gravity (STG) were present, allowing for sources incident from any direction on the sky, is shown. In addition, through separate theoretical results which do not involve the recent GW detections, we show that [Formula: see text] theories of gravity having a third massless mode are ultimately ruled out while there is still room for STG having a third (massive or massless) mode and for [Formula: see text] theories of gravity having a third massive mode.

We compute the two-point correlation of the energy density for the massless mode in deconfining SU(2) Yang–Mills thermodynamics and point towards a possible application for the physics of cold, dilute, and stable clouds of atomic hydrogen within the Milky Way.
