We consider domain walls embedded in curved backgrounds as an approximation for braneworld scenarios. We give a large class of new exact solutions, exhausting the possibilities for describing one and two walls for the cases where the curvature of both the bulk and the wall is locally constant. In the case of two walls, we find solutions where each wall has positive tension. An interesting property of these solutions is that the curvature of the walls can be much smaller than the tension, leading to a significant cancellation of the effective cosmological constant, which however is still much larger than the observational limits. We further discuss some aspects of inflation in models based on wall solutions.

Extra-dimensional Origins of Chemical Potentials at the Cosmological Collider
A rolling 5D gauge-field inflaton acts as an extra-dimensional electric field, creating charged and neutral KK particles far heavier than H and yielding observable oscillatory signatures.

Suppressing Extra-Dimensional Axion Isocurvature Dynamically
Radion dynamics in warped 5D models enhance the axion decay constant during inflation, satisfying CMB isocurvature bounds at higher Hubble scales while restoring the QCD window afterward.

Inflation with a Growing Fifth Dimension
Inflation from a UV-brane inflaton in a warped 5D bulk with an IR brane predicts a blue-tilted low-k scalar spectrum and oscillating tensor features because the early adiabatic modes come from the radion.

Quasinormal Ringing of de Sitter Braneworlds
Thin and thick de Sitter braneworlds have discrete, purely imaginary quasinormal frequencies for gravitational perturbations, with decay rates set by the Hubble constant and, for thick branes, by the brane width parameter.
