Effective field theories and matching for codimension-2 branes
Cliff Burgess,Cliff Burgess,Cliff Burgess,D. Hoover,C. de Rham,C. de Rham,Gianmassimo Tasinato +6 more
TL;DR: This work identifies the classical matching conditions that relate the near-brane asymptotic behaviour of bulk fields to the low-energy effective actions describing how space-filling codimension-2 branes interact with the surrounding extra-dimensional bulk, and shows how these may be renormalized in a general way.
Kicking the rugby ball: perturbations of 6D gauged chiral supergravity
C.P. Burgess,C.P. Burgess,C. de Rham,C. de Rham,C. de Rham,D. Hoover,D. Mason,Andrew J. Tolley,Andrew J. Tolley +8 more
TL;DR: The axially symmetric scalar perturbations of 6D chiral gauged supergravity compactified on the general warped geometries in the presence of two source branes were analyzed in this paper.

Ultraviolet Sensitivity in Higher Dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, the first three Gilkey-DeWitt (heat-kernel) coefficients, a0, a1 and a2, for massive particles having the spins of most physical interest in n dimensions, including the contributions of the ghosts and the fields associated with the appropriate generalized Higgs mechanism, were calculated.

Effective Field Theories and Matching for Codimension-2 Branes
Cliff Burgess,Cliff Burgess,Cliff Burgess,D. Hoover,C. de Rham,C. de Rham,Gianmassimo Tasinato +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the Friedmann equation for higher-codimension branes is interpreted as a relation between the codimension-2 brane tension and its contribution to the low-energy on-brane effective potential.
