We construct gauge theories in two extra dimensions compactified on the chiral square, which is a simple compactification that leads to chiral fermions in four dimensions. Stationarity of the action on the boundary specifies the boundary…
We analyze the symmetries that are realized on the massive Kaluza-Klein modes in generic D-dimensional backgrounds with three non-compact directions. For this we construct the unbroken phase given by the decompactification limit, in which…
We construct a Chern-Simons type gauged N=8 supergravity in three spacetime dimensions with gauge group SO(4) x T_\infty over the infinite dimensional coset space SO(8,\infty)/(SO(8) x SO(\infty)), where T_\infty is an infinite dimensional…
We perform a Kaluza-Klein inspired rewriting of double field theory by splitting the coordinates into `compact' and `non-compact' directions. There is no truncation of the compact coordinates or their duals, and so this formulation is…
The holographic duality can be extended to include quantum theories with broken coordinate invariance leading to the appearance of the gravitational anomalies. On the gravity side one adds the gravitational Chern-Simons term to the bulk…

Actions for noncommutative (NC) gauge field theories can be expanded perturbatively in powers of the noncommutativity parameter $\theta$ using the Seiberg-Witten map between ordinary classical fields and their NC counterparts. The leading…

The Kaluza-Klein theory and Randall-Sundrum theory are examined comparatively, with focus on the five dimensional (Dirac) fermion and the dimensional reduction to four dimensions. They are treated in the Cartan formalism. The chiral…
We investigate excitation of Kaluza-Klein modes due to the parametric resonance caused by oscillation of radius of compactification. We consider a gravitational perturbation around a D-dimensional spacetime, which we compactify on a…
The Kaluza-Klein reduction of the 3d gravitational Chern-Simons term to a 2d theory is equivalent to a Poisson-sigma model with fourdimensional target space and degenerate Poisson tensor of rank 2. Thus two constants of motion (Casimir…
Kaluza-Klein reduction of the 3-dimensional gravitational Chern-Simons term leads to a 2-dimensional theory that supports a symmetry breaking solution and an associated kink interpolating between AdS and dS geometries.
We present a geometrical unification theory in a Kaluza-Klein approach that achieve the geometrization of a generic gauge theory bosonic component. We show how it is possible to derive the gauge charge conservation from the invariance of…
The genuine Kaluza-Klein-like theories (with no fields in addition to gravity) have difficulties with the existence of massless spinors after the ompactification of some of dimensions of space\cite{witten}. We assume a $M^{(1+3)} \times$ a…
We construct a manifestly gauge invariant Lagrangian in 3+1 dimensions for N Kaluza-Klein modes of an SU(m) gauge theory in the bulk. For example, if the bulk is 4+1, the effective theory is \Pi_{i=1}^{N+1} SU(m)_i with N chiral (\bar{m},m)…
A new 5-dimensional Classical Unified Field Theory of Kaluza-Klein type is formulated using 2 separate scalar fields which are related in such a way as to make the 5-dimensional matter-geometry coupling parameter constant. It is shown that…
In Kaluza-Klein model with toroidal extra dimensions, we obtain the metric coefficients in a weak-field approximation for delta-shaped matter sources. These metric coefficients are applied to calculate the formulas for frequency shift,…
We study Kaluza-Klein modes of a d=7, N=2 vector multiplet in AdS_4 x S^3. Such modes arise in the context of AdS/CFT as dual objects of a class of gauge invariant operators in N=4 Chern-Simons theories. We confirm that the Kaluza-Klein…
The one-dimensional ${\cal N}\times {\cal N}$-matrix Chern-Simons action is given, for large ${\cal N}$ and for slowly varying fields, by the $(2k+1)$-dimensional Chern-Simons action $S_{CS}$, where the gauge fields in $S_{CS}$ parametrize…
In this note, we revisit the 4-dimensional theory of massive gravity through compactification of an extra dimension and geometric symmetry breaking. We dimensionally reduce the 5-dimensional topological Chern-Simons gauge theory of (anti)…
