Journal ArticleDOI
The dark aftermath of Higgs inflation
TL;DR: In this article, the dynamics of the late universe when a nonminimally coupled Higgs field is present were studied and it was shown that the nonminimal coupling leads to a nontrivial mixing between the gravitational degrees of freedom and the Goldstone massless bosons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Particlelike solutions in modified gravity: The Higgs monopole
TL;DR: In this article, Fuzfa et al. studied the static and spherically symmetric solutions of the equations of motion in the presence of standard baryonic matter, called "Higgs monopoles" and presented a simplified description of the monopole, for which the metric inside the spherical matter distribution can be approximated by the standard metric of general relativity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-Big Bang scenario on self-T-dual bouncing branes
TL;DR: In this article, a new class of five-dimensional dilatonic actions are invariant under T-duality transformations along three compact coordinates, provided that an appropriate potential is chosen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brane World in a Topological Black Hole Bulk
TL;DR: In this article, a static brane in the background of a topological black hole, in arbitrary dimensions, is considered and the massless mode of Randall-Sundrum is recovered in the limit of large black hole mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
A special class of solutions in $F(R)$-gravity
TL;DR: In this paper, a special class of vacuum $F(R)$-modified gravity models is considered and the form of their Lagrangian is such that the field equations are trivially satisfied when the Ricci scalar is constant.
