Abstract
Recently, it was found that the vector field can be naturally localized on the thick brane in chameleon gravity. In this work, we extend this study to encompass de Sitter brane scenario. We focus on the localization of q-form fields. The scalar and vector fields can be localized on the de Sitter brane, while the KR field cannot be localized. The condition for localization of the scalar and vector fields is obtained. Furthermore, we investigate the localization characteristics in two examples with given conformal factor b(φ). In the first case, the effective potentials and KK modes of the matter fields are obtained asymmetric even though the de Sitter brane has Z2 symmetry. In the second case, volcano-like effective potentials are generated in the de Sitter brane model.
