ABSTRACT:
A mechanism that enables fermions to live outside of but be localized near a brane is proposed based on the field-theoretical framework. Two types of fermion fields are considered: one is localized to the brane through the Yukawa interaction, and another is localized through the fermion interaction. It is shown that, besides the well-localized zero-mode, there exists a light mode continuum of which oscillating components are delocalized. As a consequence it is possible to assume existence of invisible material particles that live outside the brane on which we reside and beleaguer visible particles. A possible extension to the mind-body problem is discussed.
