We study the circumstances under which a Kaluza-Klein reduction on an n-sphere, with a massless truncation that includes all the Yang-Mills fields of SO(n+1), can be consistent at the full non-linear level. We take as the starting point a…

We examine generalizations of the five-dimensional canonical metric by including a dependence of the extra coordinate in the four-dimensional metric. We discuss a more appropriate way to interpret the four-dimensional energy-momentum tensor…

We present a brief description of noncompactified higher-dimensional theories from the perspective of general relativity. More concretely, the Space-Time-Matter theory, or Induced Matter theory, and the reduction procedure used to construct…

In a recent paper, the complete (non-linear) Kaluza-Klein Ansatz for the consistent embedding of certain scalar plus gravity subsectors of gauged maximal supergravity in D=4, 5 and 7 was presented, in terms of sphere reductions from D=11 or…

In this article we study Kaluza-Klein (KK) dimensional reduction of massive Abelian gauge theories with charged matter fields on a circle. Since local gauge transformations change position dependence of the charged fields, the decomposition…

Einstein theory can be embedded in Kaluza-Klein theory, and in particular all 4D vacuum solutions can be embedded in 5D (pure) canonical space where spacetime is independent of the extra coordinate. The uniqueness of 5D canonical space is…

The isometric immersion of two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds or surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space is a fundamental problem in differential geometry. When the Gauss curvature is negative, the isometric immersion problem is…

Multidimensional theories still remain attractive from the point of view of better understanding fundamental interactions. In this paper a six-dimensional Kaluza-Klein type model at the classical, Einstein's gravity formulation is…

We examine gauge theories defined in higher dimensions where theextra dimensions form a fuzzy (finite matrix) manifold. First we reinterpret these gauge theories as four-dimensional theories with Kaluza-Klein modes and then we perform a…

We study the Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction of the Lovelock-Cartan theory in five-dimensional spacetime, with a compact dimension of $S^1$ topology. We find cosmological solutions of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker class in the reduced…

The connection dynamics of the 5-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory reduced on 4-dimensional spacetime is obtained by performing the Hamiltonian analysis and canonical transformations. Deparametrization is achieved in the spherically symmetric…

The usual equivalence between the Palatini and metric (or affinity and vielbein) formulations of Einstein theory fails in two spacetime dimensions for its "Kaluza--Klein" reduced (as well as for its standard) version. Among the differences…

We construct consistent brane-world Kaluza-Klein reductions involving the radion mode that measures the separation of the domain-wall branes. In these new examples, we can obtain matter supermultiplets coupled to supergravity on the brane,…

Pushing forward the similitudes between the gravitational collapse and the expansion of the universe (in the reversed sense of time), it should be expected that, during the collapse, eventually, a spacetime domain would be reached where…

We show that the ghost-free models of massive gravity and their multi-graviton extensions follow from considering higher dimensional General Relativity in Einstein-Cartan form on a discrete extra dimension, according to the Dimensional…

Let $N$ be a Riemannian, neutral or Lorentzian $4$-dimensional space form. In this paper, the expressions of the equations of Gauss, Codazzi and Ricci of a space-like or time-like surface in $N$ given in [7] are naturally understood in…

Conformal Weyl and Cotton tensors are dimensionally reduced by a Kaluza-Klein procedure. Explicit formulas are given for reducing from four and three dimensions to three and two dimensions, respectively. When the higher dimensional…

This paper proposes a generalized framework with joint normalization which learns lower-dimensional subspaces with maximum discriminative power by making use of the Riemannian geometry. In particular, we model the similarity/dissimilarity…
