Non-compact Calabi-Yau Manifolds and Localized Gravity

We study localization of gravity in flat space in superstring theory. We find that an induced Einstein-Hilbert term can be generated only in four dimensions, when the bulk is a non-compact Calabi-Yau threefold with non-vanishing Euler number. The origin of this term is traced to R^4 couplings in ten...
