The Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes of a massive scalar field on a 3-brane embedded in six dimensional multiply warped spacetime are determined. Due to the presence of warping along both the extra dimensions the KK mass spectrum splits into two…
We discuss properties of particles and fields in a multi-dimensional space-time, where the geometrization of gauge interactions can be performed. For instance, in a 5-dimensional Kaluza-Klein manifold we argue that the motion of charged…
A model universe is proposed in the framework of 5-dimensional noncompact Kaluza-Klein cosmology which is not Ricci flat. The 4D part as the Robertson-Walker metric is coupled to conventional perfect fluid, and its extra-dimensional part is…
This paper is a review of a recently introduced cosmological model from a noncompact Kaluza-Klein theory for a single scalar field minimally coupled to gravity. We obtain that the 4D scalar potential has a geometrical origin and assume…
In this letter we show that in a Kaluza-Klein framework we can have arbitrary topology change between the macroscopic (i.e. noncompactified) spacelike 3-hypersurfaces. This is achieved by using the compactified dimensions as a catalyser for…
We show that the Kaluza-Klein theory contains a fundamental problem: The four-dimensional metric tensor and the electromagnetic potential vector assumed in the Kaluza-Klein theory belong to four-dimensional vector spaces that are not…
To better understand the scalar field typical of higher-dimensional extensions of general relativity, we analyse three classes of solutions. In all, the field equation for the extra dimension resembles the Klein-Gordon equation, and we…
In a Kaluza-Klein background $V^4\otimes S^3$, we provide a way to reproduce, by the dimensional reduction, a 4-spinor with a SU(2) gauge coupling. Since additional gauge violating terms cannot be avoided, we compute their order of…
We present a renormalizable 4-dimensional SU(N) gauge theory with a suitable multiplet of scalar fields, which dynamically develops extra dimensions in the form of a fuzzy sphere S^2. We explicitly find the tower of massive Kaluza-Klein…
A new five dimensional spherical vacuum solution is both dervied and its signature, curvature and truncation discussed. Its truncation leads to a four dimensional spacetime with similiar stress to those found by charge-free Kaluza-Klein…
In the traditional Kaluza-Klein theory, the cylinder condition and the constancy of the extra-dimensional radius (scalar field) imply that timelike geodesics on the 5-dimensional bundle project to solutions of the Lorentz force equation on…
Production of exotic states at LHC is considered in the large radius compactification scenario. We envisage a five dimensional theory for a scalar field in five dimensional flat spacetime. It is compactified on a circle, $S^1$, with radius,…
Multidimensional theories still remain attractive from the point of view of better understanding of fundamental interactions. In this paper we consider a six - dimensional Kaluza -- Klein type model at the classical level. We derive static…
We study the hierarchy problem on the four- and five-branes which are constructed by attaching a circle and a sphere to the standard three-brane, respectively. The effective masses in their excited spectra on these extended dimensional…
We employ a Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction process on the action of the antisymmetric tensor field in five-dimensional space-time. The result is a joint field theory of four-dimensional antisymmetric and vector fields. We write the…
In this paper we describe in detail the computation of the scattering amplitudes of massive spin-2 Kaluza-Klein excitations in a gravitational theory with a single compact extra dimension, whether flat or warped. These scattering amplitudes…
We study the Kaluza-Klein spectrum of D=5 simple supergravity on $S^2$ with special interest in the relation to a two-dimensional N=4 superconformal field theory. The spectrum is obtained around the maximally supersymmetric…
By assuming that the geometry of spacetime is uniquely determined by the energy momentum tensor of matter alone, i.e. without any interactions, enables us to construct the Lagrangian from which the metric of higher dimensional spacetime…
The Kerr-Taub-NUT spacetime in the Kaluza-Klein theory represents a localized stationary and axisymmetric object in four dimensions from the Kaluza-Klein viewpoint. That is, it harbors companion electromagnetic and dilaton fields, thereby…
It is well known that the Kaluza-Klein monopole of Sorkin, Gross and Perry can be obtained from the Euclidean Taub-NUT solution with an extra compact fifth spatial dimension via Kaluza-Klein reduction. In this paper we consider…
