Description

We consider a dynamical braneworld in a six-dimensional spacetime containing a singularity. Using the Israel conditions we study the motion of a 4-brane embedded in this setup. We analyse the brane behaviour when its position is perturbed about a fixed point and solve the full nonlinear dynamics in several possible scenarios. We also investigate possible gravitational shortcuts and calculate the delay between graviton and photon signals and the ratio of the corresponding subtended horizons
