Thick Brane Split Caused by Spacetime Torsion    [PDF]

Jie Yang, Yun-Liang Li, Yuan Zhong, Yang Li

In this paper we apply the five-dimensional $f(T)$ gravity with $f(T)=T+k
T^n$ to brane scenario to explore the solutions under a given warp factor, and
we find that the analytic domain wall solution will be a double-kink solution
when the geometric effect of spacetime torsion is strongly enhanced. We also
investigate the localization of fermion fields on the split branes
corresponding to the double-kink solution.
