We present a model for dark matter with extra spatial dimensions in which Standard-Model (SM) fermions have localized wave functions. The underlying gauge group is $G_{rm SM} otimes {rm U}(1)_z$, and the dark matter particle is a SM-singlet Dirac fermion, $chi$, which is charged under the ${rm U}(1)_z$ gauge symmetry. We show that the conventional wisdom that the mass of a Dirac fermion is naturally at the ultraviolet cutoff scale does not hold in this model. We further demonstrate that this model yields a dark matter relic abundance in agreement with observation and discuss constraints from direct and indirect searches for dark matter. The dark matter particle interacts weakly with matter and has negligibly small self-interactions. Very good fits to data from cosmological observations and experimental dark matter searches are obtained with $m_chi$ in the multi-TeV range. A discussion is given of observational signatures and experimental tests of the model.

In this paper we study the general scenario of an effective theory coming from the compactification of a higher dimensional theory in a string inspired setting. This leads to gauge coupling unification at an intermediate mass scale. After having comp
uted all the threshold corrections (due to Kaluza-Klein modes) to the running of the couplings of the MSSM we embark in a detailed phenomenological analysis of the model, based on the numerical package DarkSUSY, to find constraints on the scenario from Dark Matter data. The mass spectrum of the theory does not have tachyons. Moreover we find that the neutralino is still the LSP with a relic density compatible with the most recent experimental data. With respect to the standard mSUGRA scenario we find that the neutralino is higgsino like in most of the parameter space. Our modifications to the DarkSUSY package will be shortly available upon request.
In this paper we analyze a dark matter model inspired by theories with extra dimensions. The dark matter candidate corresponds to the first Kaluza-Klein mode of a real scalar added to the Standard Model. The tower of new particles enriches the calcul
ation of the relic abundance. For large mass splitting, the model converges to the predictions of the inert singlet dark matter model. For nearly degenerate mass spectrum, coannihilations increase the cross-sections used for direct and indirect dark matter searches. Moreover, the Kaluza-Klein zero mode can mix with the SM higgs and further constraints can be applied.
We search for an extension of the Standard Model that contains a viable dark matter candidate and that can be embedded into a fundamental, asymptotically safe, quantum field theory with quantum gravity. Demanding asymptotic safety leads to boundary c
onditions for the non-gravitational couplings at the Planck scale. For a given dark matter model these translate into constraints on the mass of the dark matter candidate. We derive constraints on the dark matter mass and couplings in two minimal dark matter models: i) scalar dark matter coupled via the Higgs-portal in the $B$-$L$ model; ii) fermionic dark matter in a $U(1)_X$ extension of the Standard Model, coupled via the new gauge boson. For scalar dark matter we find 56 GeV $ < M_text{DM} < 63$ GeV, and for fermionic dark matter $M_text{DM} leq 50$ TeV. Within our framework, we identify three benchmark scenarios with distinct phenomenological consequences.
We demonstrate a new model which uses an ADD type braneworld scenario to produce a multi-state theory of dark matter. Compactification of the extra dimensions onto a sphere leads to the association of a single complex scalar in the bulk with multiple
Kaluza-Klein towers in an effective four-dimensional theory. A mutually interacting multi-state theory of dark matter arises naturally within which the dark matter states are identified with the lightest Kaluza-Klein particles of fixed magnetic quantum number. These states are protected from decay by a combination of a global U(1) symmetry and the continuous rotational symmetry about the polar axis of the spherical geometry. We briefly discuss the relic abundance calculation and investigate the spin-independent elastic scattering off nucleons of the lightest and next-to-lightest dark matter states.
We consider a simple abelian vector dark matter (DM) model, where {it only} the DM $(widetilde{X}_mu)$ couples non-minimally to the scalar curvature $(widetilde{R})$ of the background spacetime via an operator of the form $sim widetilde{X}_mu,widetil
de{X}^mu,widetilde{R}$. By considering the standard freeze-out scenario, we show, it is possible to probe such a non-minimally coupled DM in direct detection experiments for a coupling strength $xisimmathcal{O}left(10^{30}right)$ and DM mass $m_Xlesssim 55$ TeV, satisfying Planck observed relic abundance and perturbative unitarity. We also discuss DM production via freeze-in, governed by the non-minimal coupling, that requires $xilesssim 10^5$ to produce the observed DM abundance over a large range of DM mass depending on the choice of the reheating temperature. We further show, even in the absence of the non-minimal coupling, it is possible to produce the whole observed DM abundance via 2-to-2 scattering of the bath particles mediated by massless gravitons.
