- Large Mass Hierarchy from a Small Extra DimensionPhysical Review Letters · 1999 · 9,257 citations
We propose a new higher-dimensional mechanism for solving the hierarchy problem. The weak scale is generated from the Planck scale through an exponential hierarchy. However, this exponential arises not from gauge interactions but from the background metric (which is a…
- An Alternative to CompactificationPhysical Review Letters · 1999 · 7,240 citations
Conventional wisdom states that Newton's force law implies only four noncompact dimensions. We demonstrate that this is not necessarily true in the presence of a nonfactorizable background geometry. The specific example we study is a single 3-brane embedded in five…
