Abstract
We discussed a mechanism that allows the universe to start from lower dimension () in its very early era and evolves to four dimension at the end of the process. The mechanism is generated by a nonminimal derivative coupling of scalar field, where derivative terms of the scalar field coupled to curvature tensor. We solve the Einstein equations for a limit of large and nearly constant Hubble parameter and analyze the evolution of the Hubble parameter in this limit. The lower-dimensionality in early universe has advantages in the context of unification theory.
