Quasi-homologous spherically symmetric branes and their symmetry breaking
We revisit the dynamical system based approach of spherically symmetric
vacuum braneworlds, pointing out and studying the existence of a transcritical
bifurcation as the dark pressure parameter changes its sign, we analyze some
consequences of not discard the brane cosmological constant. For instance, it
is noteworthy that the existence of an isothermal state equation between the
dark fluid parameters cannot be obtained via the requirement of a
quasi-homologous symmetry of the vacuum.Comment: 20 pages, 12 figures. To appear in EPJ
Solution for a local straight cosmic string in the braneworld gravity
In this work we deal with the spacetime shaped by a straight cosmic string,
emerging from local gauge theories, in the braneworld gravity context. We
search for physical consequences of string features due to the modified
gravitational scenario encoded in the projected gravitational equations. It is
shown that cosmic strings in braneworld gravity may present significant
differences when compared to the general relativity predictions since its
linear density is modified and the deficit angle produced by the cosmic string
is attenuated. Furthermore, the existence of cosmic strings in that scenario
requires a strong restriction to the braneworld tension: , in Planck units.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figure

Static Domain Wall in the Braneworld gravity
In this paper we consider a static domain wall inside a 3-brane. Differently
of the standard achievement obtained in General Relativity, the analysis
performed here gives a consistency condition for the existence of static domain
walls in a braneworld gravitational scenario. It is also shown the behavior of
the domain wall gravitational field in the newtonian limit.Comment: 11 pages, no figures, accepted for publication in EPJ
