Abstract
We present four-dimensional gauge theories in Minkowski spacetime which effectively generate in certain energy regimes five-dimensional warped geometries whereas, in general, the fifth dimension is latticized. After discussing in detail several general aspects in such theories we present a number of exactly solvable examples. We also point out how a particular case, defined in an N-sided polygon and having a Z_N symmetry, has a similar realization in an appropriate supersymmetric setting with D3-branes.
