Abstract:
We consider a class of higher order corrections in the form of Euler densities of arbitrary rank to the standard gravity action in dimensions. We have previously shown that this class of corrections allows for domain wall solutions despite the presence of higher powers of the curvature. In the present paper we explicitly solve the linearized equation of motion for gravity fluctuations around the domain wall background and show that there always exist one massless state (graviton) propagating on the wall and a continuous tower of massive states propagating in the bulk.- 11.27.+d
