Non-linear Gravity on Branes and Effective Action

Abstract

We develop the general formalism to study the low energy regime of the brane world. We apply our formalism to the single brane model where the AdS/CFT correspondence will take an important role. We also consider the two-brane system and show the system is described by the quasi-scalar tensor gravity. Our result provides a basis for predicting CMB fluctuations in the braneworld models.
