Abstract

The higher-dimensional generalization of Randall-Sundrum approach with additional positive curvature n-dimensional and Ricci-flat m-dimensional compuct subspaces is considered in pure gravity theory with metric of space-time and (p+1)-form potential as basic fields. Introduction of mass term of (p+1)-form potential into the action of co-dimension one brane permits to stabilize brane's position and hence to calculate the value of Planck/electroweek scales ratio. There are no ad hoc too large or too small parameters in the theory; calculated mass hierarchy strongly depends on dimensionalities m, n of additional subspaces and its observed large value in 4 dimensions (i.e. for p=3) is received in particular in D13 (m=1, n=7) or D16 (m=2, n=9) space-times.
