Real Scalar Field Scattering with Polynomial Approximation around Schwarzschild-de Sitter Black-hole
As one of the fitting methods, the polynomial approximation is effective to process sophisticated problem. In this paper, we employ this approach to handle the scattering of scalar field around the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black-hole. The complex relationship between tortoise coordinate and radial coordinate is replaced by the approximate polynomial. The Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger-like equation, the real boundary conditions and the polynomial approximation construct a full Sturm-Liouville type problem. Then this boundary value problem can be solved numerically according to two limiting cases: the first one is the Nariai black-hole whose horizons are close to each other, the second one is when the horizons are widely separated. Compared with previous results (Brevik and Tian), the field near the event horizon and cosmological horizon can have a better description.

PARTICLE MASSES IN KALUZA–KLEIN–GORDON THEORY AND THE REALITY OF EXTRA DIMENSIONS
To see how the effective 4-D mass of a particle is affected by the geometry of an ND space, we take the Klein–Gordon equation in 5-D and evaluate it in 4-D using two exact solutions of 5-D Kaluza–Klein theory. The mass (squared) turns out to be complex if the theory is independent of the extra coordinate, but can be made real if the wave function depends on an extra dimension which is physical. These results have significant implications for 10-D superstring theory.

The Numerical Solution of Scalar Field for Nariai Case in 5D Ricci-flat SdS Black String Space with Polynomial Approximation
As one exact candidate of the higher dimensional black hole, the 5D Ricci-flat Schwarzschild-de Sitter black string space presents something interesting. In this paper, we give a numerical solution to the real scalar field around the Nariai black hole by the polynomial approximation. Unlike the previous tangent approximation, this fitting function makes a perfect match in the leading intermediate region and gives a good description near both the event and the cosmological horizons. We can read from our results that the wave is close to a harmonic one with the tortoise coordinate. Furthermore, with the actual radial coordinate the waves pile up almost equally near the both horizons.

Brane Formation and Cosmological Constraint on the Number of Extra Dimensions
Special relativity is generalized to extra dimensions and quantized energy levels of particles are obtained. By calculating the probability of particles' motion in extra dimensions at high temperature of the early universe, it is proposed that the branes may have not existed since the very beginning of the universe, but formed later. Meanwhile, before the formation, particles of the universe may have filled in the whole bulk, not just on the branes. This scenario differs from that in the standard big bang cosmology in which all particles are assumed to be in the 4D spacetime. So, in brane models, whether our universe began from a 4D big bang singularity is questionable. A cosmological constraint on the number of extra dimensions is also given which favors N ≥ 7.

Correspondence Between DGP Brane Cosmology and $5D$ Ricci-flat Cosmology
We discuss the correspondence between the DGP brane cosmology and 5D Ricci-flat cosmology by letting their metrics equal each other. By this correspondence, a specific geometrical property of the arbitrary integral constant I in DGP metric is given and it is related to the curvature of 5D bulk. At the same time, the relation of arbitrary functions μ and ν in a class of Ricci-flat solutions is obtained from DGP brane metric.

Reconstruction of Five-Dimensional Bounce Cosmological Models from Deceleration Factor
In this paper, we consider a class of five-dimensional Ricci-flat vacuum solutions, which contain two arbitrary functions μ(t) and ν(t). It is shown that μ(t) can be rewritten as a new arbitrary function f(z) in terms of redshift z and the f(z) can be determined by choosing particular deceleration parameters q(z) which gives early deceleration and late time acceleration. In this way, the 5D cosmological model can be reconstructed and the evolution of the universe can be determined.

Quantum hair, instantons, and black hole thermodynamics: some new results
Abstract We present results obtained by a consideration of the non-classical energy-momentum tensor associated with Euclidean instantons outside the event horizon of black holes. We demonstrate here how this allows for an analytic estimate to be made of the effect of discrete quantum hair on the temperature of the black hole, in which the role of violations of the weak energy condition associated with instantons is made explicit, and in which the previous results of Coleman, Preskill, and Wilczek are extended. Last, we demonstrate how the existence of a non-classical electric field outside the event horizon of black holes, uncovered by these authors, can be identified with a well-known effect in the Abelian Higgs mode] in two dimensions. In this case, there is a one-to-one connection between the discrete charge of a black hole and a topological phase in two dimensions.

Gauged Kaluza-Klein AdS pseudo-supergravity
Abstract We obtain the pseudo-supergravity extension of the D -dimensional Kaluza–Klein theory, which is the circle reduction of pure gravity in D + 1 dimensions. The fermionic partners are pseudo-gravitino and pseudo-dilatino. The full Lagrangian is invariant under the pseudo-supersymmetric transformation, up to quadratic order in fermion fields. We find that the theory possesses a U ( 1 ) global symmetry that can be gauged so that all the fermions are charged under the Kaluza–Klein vector. The gauging process generates a scalar potential that has a maximum, leading to the AdS vacuum. Whist the highest dimension for gauged AdS supergravity is seven, our gauged AdS pseudo-supergravities can exist in arbitrary dimensions.

*-Trek: The One loop N=4 noncommutative SYM action
Abstract We investigate N =4 noncommutative super-Yang–Mills (SYM) theory. We compute the one-loop four gauge boson scattering amplitude on parallel D p -branes, and find the corresponding contribution to the noncommutative SYM one-loop action in a momentum expansion. The result is somewhat surprising. We find that while the planar diagram can be written using the usual ∗ -product, the contributions from nonplanar diagrams in general involve additional structure beyond the ∗ -product, arising from the nontrivial worldsheet correlations surviving the field theory limit. To each nonplanar diagram, depending on the number n of external vertex operator insertions on each boundary, there is a corresponding ∗ n n -ary operation. We further find that it is no longer possible to write down an off-shell gauge invariant one-loop effective action using the noncommutative field strength defined at tree-level.

Ramond–Ramond couplings of noncommutative D-branes
Abstract We propose the leading couplings, in an α ′ expansion, of D-branes to Ramond–Ramond (RR) potentials in a constant NS–NS B-field for an arbitrary choice of noncommutative parameter. The proposal is motivated by some string amplitude computations. The zero momentum couplings are topological in nature and include Elliott's formula involving the noncommutative Chern character. The finite momentum couplings are given by smearing the zero momentum operators along an open Wilson line. Comparisons between the RR couplings in different descriptions lead to a better understanding of the field redefinitions between gauge field variables (the Seiberg–Witten map) and help constrain α ′ corrections. In particular we recover the Seiberg–Witten map conjectured by one of the authors in hep-th/0011125. We also discuss the dynamics of the transverse scalar fields and find evidence for a new derivative-driven dielectric effect.
