Abstract

In the No-boundary Universe with d=11d=11 supergravity, under the Sn×S11nS_n \times S_{11-n} Kaluza-Klein ansatz, the only seed instanton for the universe creation is a S7×S4S_7 \times S_4 space. It is proven that for the Freund-Rubin, Englert and Awada-Duff-Pope models the macroscopic universe in which we are living must be 4- instead of 7-dimensional without appealing to the anthropic principle.
