A higher-dimensional universe with compactified extra dimensions admits a four-dimensional description consisting of an infinite Kaluza-Klein tower of fields. We revisit the problem of describing the free part of the complete Kaluza-Klein…
For the 2-brane Randall-Sundrum model, we calculate the bulk geometry for strong gravity, in the low matter density regime, for slowly varying matter sources. This is relevant for astrophysical or cosmological applications. The warped…
We discuss the equations of motion of test particles for a version of Kaluza-Klein theory where the cylinder condition is not imposed. The metric tensor of the five-dimensional manifold is allowed to depend on the fifth coordinate. This is…
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 study scenarios in which there is a hierarchy of two sets of large compactified extra dimensions. One particularly interesting case has a single millimeter size extra dimension and five TeV^{-1} size dimensions. The Standard Model gauge…
Recently, multi-graviton theory on a simple closed circuit graph corresponding to the $S^1$ compactification of the Kaluza-Klein (KK) theory has been considered. In the present paper, we extend this theory to that on a general graph and…
We study gravitational lensing and the bending of light in low energy scale (M_S) gravity theories with extra space-time dimensions n. We find that due to the presence of spin-2 Kaluza-Klein states from compactification, a correction to the…
We study (3+1)+D dimensional spacetime, where D extra dimensions are timelike. Compactification of the D timelike dimensions leads to tachyonic Kaluza-Klein gravitons. We calculate the gravitational self-energies of massive spherical bodies…
New results and perspectives precipitate from the (modified as) Kaluza ansatz 2 (KA2), whereby, instead of appending $n$ Planck-scale (${\rm L_o}$) compact SL dimensions to ordinary 4D spacetime, one augments $n$ such dimensions by 3 large…
In the framework of Kaluza-Klein theory, we investigate a $(4+1)$-dimensional universe consisting of a $(4+1)$ dimensional Robertson-Walker type metric coupled with a $(4+1)$ dimensional energy-momentum tensor. The matter part consists of…
In (4 + 1) gravity the assumption that the five-dimensional metric is independent of the fifth coordinate authorizes the extra dimension to be either spacelike or timelike. As a consequence of this, the time coordinate and the extra…
We consider a free real vector field propagating in a five dimensional flat space with its fifth dimension compactified either on a strip or on a circle and perform a Kalaza Klein reduction which breaks SO(4,1) invariance while reserving…
Within the scope of multidimensional Kaluza--Klein gravity with nonlinear curvature terms and two spherical extra spaces of dimensions $m$ and $n$, we study the properties of an effective action for the scale factors of the extra…
In Kaluza-Klein models, we investigate soliton solutions of Einstein equation. We obtain the formulas for perihelion shift, deflection of light, time delay of radar echoes and PPN parameters. We find that the solitonic parameter k should be…
We propose in this paper a new approach to the Kaluza-Klein idea of a five dimensional space-time unifying gravitation and electromagnetism, and extension to higher-dimensional space-time. By considering a natural geometric definition of a…
We consider the novel Kaluza-Klein (KK) scenario where gravity propagates in the $4+n$ dimensional bulk of spacetime, while gauge and matter fields are confined to the 3+1 dimensional world-volume of a brane configuration. For simplicity we…
We have studied the torsion cosmology model in Kaluza-Klein theory. We considered two simple models in which the torsion vectors are $A_{\mu}=(\alpha,0,0,0)$ and $A_{\mu}=a(t)^2(0,\beta,\beta,\beta)$, respectively. For the first model, the…
