5 Domain wall model with two scalar fields General FRW in the five dimensional space-time, the metric is given by ds 2 =dw 2 + L 2 e u(w,t) ds 2 FRW. { } ds 2 FRW = dt 2 + a (t) 2 dr 2 1 kr 2 + r2 dθ 2 + r 2 sin 2 θdϕ 2. Action with two scalar fields ϕ and χ: S ϕχ = d 5 x { R g 2κ A(ϕ, χ) µϕ µ ϕ B(ϕ, χ) µ ϕ µ χ 1 } 2 C(ϕ, χ) µχ µ χ V (ϕ, χ). Typeset by FoilTEX 5

Field equations read 0 = 1 2 A ϕ µ ϕ µ ϕ + A µ µ ϕ + A χ µ ϕ µ χ + ( B χ 1 ) 2 C ϕ µ χ µ χ + B µ µ χ V ϕ, 0 = ( 12 ) A χ + B ϕ µ ϕ µ ϕ + B µ µ ϕ C χ µ χ µ χ + C µ µ χ + C ϕ µ ϕ µ χ V χ. A ϕ = A(ϕ, χ)/ ϕ, etc. We now choose ϕ = t and χ = w. Typeset by FoilTEX 6
7 We can construct a model to realize the arbitrary metric in the form, ds 2 = dw 2 + L 2 e u(w,t) ds { 2 FRW, ds 2 FRW = dt2 + a (t) 2 dr 2 + r 2 dθ 2 + r 2 sin 2 θdϕ }, 2 1 kr 2 by choosing (H (1/a) (da/dt)) A = 1 ( ) 2k ( u)2 κ 2 ü 2Ḣ + a2 2 + uh B = 3u 2κ 2 L 2 ( u + 2H), eu C = 1 κ 2 ( 3 2 u + V = 1 ( κ 2 3 ( u + 2 4, 2k L 2 e u a 2 1 ( 2e u ü + 2Ḣ + ( u)2 + 5 uh + 6H 2)), (u ) 2 ) + 3k L 2 e u a L 2 e u ( 3ü + 6Ḣ + 3 ( u) u + 18H 2)). Einstein equation is satisfied. Field equations are nothing but the Bianchi identities. Typeset by FoilTEX 7
8 If any eigenvalue of the matrix ( A a ghost. Example without ghost B B C ) is negative, there appears a(t) t h 0, e u(w,t) = W (w) T (t), T (t) = T 1 t 1 3h 0 + T 2 t 2h 0, A = 3 2κ 2 W (w) = e 1+ w2 w 2 0, ( T (t) T (t) + 2h ) 2 0 > 0, B = 0, C = 3 t 2κ 2 1 w 0 2 ( 1 + w2 w 2 0 )3 2 > 0. No ghost. General FRW universe can be realized by the Brans-Dicke type model. Typeset by FoilTEX 8
9 Localization of graviton Perturbation g µν g µν + h µν. Assume h µν = 0 if µ or ν 1, 2, 3. Einstein eq. equation for graviton in five dimensions: ( 0 = [ 2w u u 2 + L 2 e u ü + ȧ u a + u t + 2ä a + ȧ a t t 2 + )] a 2 h ij. By assuming h ij (w, x) = e u(w,t) ĥ ij (x), 0 = ( 2ȧ u a u t + 2ä a + ȧ a t t 2 + ) a 2 ĥ ij. If u goes to minus infinity sufficiently rapidly for large w, h ij (w, x) is normalized in the direction of w and therefore there occurs the localization of graviton. Typeset by FoilTEX 9
10 Graviton localized on the domain wall 0 = ( 2ȧ u a u t + 2ä a + ȧ a t t 2 + ) a 2 ĥ ij. In the four dimensional FRW space-time, 0 = ( 2ä a + ȧ a t t 2 + ) a 2 h ij. If u ( 2ȧ a t) ĥij = 0, two expressions coincide with each other. If u 0, there could appear some corrections proportional to u. Typeset by FoilTEX 10

15 Fermion can be localized on the domain wall and the localized fermion can be chiral or anti-chiral. In D. P. George, M. Trodden and R. R. Volkas, Extra-dimensional cosmology with domain-wall branes, JHEP 0902 (2009) 035 [arxiv: [hep-ph]] It was assumed that the warp factor does not depend on the time but we have used the time-dependent warp factor.

21 Summary We have constructed the dynamical domain wall, where arbitrary four dimensional FRW universe is realized on the domain wall in the five dimensional space-time. Graviton, Chiral Spinor, and Vector can localize on the brane. Typeset by FoilTEX 21
