We find a family of complete non-linear Kaluza-Kein reduction ansatze from type IIB supergravity to Romans' 6D $F(4)$ gauged supergravity in the bosonic sector. The reduction is over a sphere $S^2$ and a Riemann surface $\Sigma$, and…
We obtain the pseudo-supergravity extension of the D-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory, which is the circle reduction of pure gravity in D+1 dimensions. The fermionic partners are pseudo-gravitino and pseudo-dilatino. The full Lagrangian is…
We construct supergravity solutions dual to twisted field theories that are the worldvolume theories of D4-branes wrapped on 2, 3-cycles, and NS-fivebranes on 3-cycles. We first obtain the solutions for the Romans' six-dimensional gauged…
A recent study of filtered deformations of (graded subalgebras of) the minimal five-dimensional Poincar\'e superalgebra resulted in two classes of maximally supersymmetric spacetimes. One class are the well-known maximally supersymmetric…
An extended field theory is presented that captures the full SL(2) x O(6,6+n) duality group of four-dimensional half-maximal supergravities. The theory has section constraints whose two inequivalent solutions correspond to minimal D=10…
Our main objective is to study how braneworld models of higher codimension differ from the 5D case and traditional Kaluza-Klein compactifications. We first derive the classical dynamics describing the physical fluctuations in a wide class…
The introduction of extra dimensions is an invaluable strategy for the unification of gravity with other physical fields. Nevertheless, the matter in hand is to be eventually reduced to the actual 4D spacetime. The Kaluza-Klein theory is no…
If Kaluza-Klein ideas were correct as an explanation of Yang-Mills and General Relativity on spacetime, the extra fibre geometry would have to be a sphere of constant size of the order of 10 Planck lengths, hence subject to quantum gravity…
The Kaluza and Klein versions of Kaluza-Klein theory are reviewed and compared. The differences in the field equations of the two theories are related to the transformation properties of the metrics employed. Based on this comparison a…
Given a super-integrable system in $n$ degrees of freedom, possessing an integral which is linear in momenta, we use the "Kaluza-Klein construction" in reverse to reduce to a lower dimensional super-integrable system. We give two examples…
In this paper we study the relation between six-dimensional supergravity compactified on S^3 X AdS_3 and certain two-dimensional conformal field theories. We compute the Kaluza-Klein spectrum of supergravity using representation theory;…
Kaluza-Klein reductions of low energy string effective actions possess a continuous $O(d,d) $ symmetry. The non-geometric elements of this group, parameterized by a bi-vector $\beta$, are not inherited from the symmetries of the…
Using measurements of geodetic precession from Gravity Probe B, we constrain possible departures from Einstein's General Relativity for a spinning test body in Kaluza-Klein gravity with one additional space dimension. We consider the two…
We probe a slice of the massive winding sector of bosonic string theory from toroidal compactifications of Double Field Theory (DFT). This string subsector corresponds to states containing one left and one right moving oscillators. We…
Einstein gravity at $D\rightarrow 2$ limit can be obtained from the Kaluza-Klein procedure by taking the dimensions of the internal space to zero while keeping only the breathing mode. The resulting scalar-tensor theory can be further…
We analyse geometric type IIA flux compactifications leading to N=4 gauged supergravities in four dimensions. The complete landscape of isotropic vacua is presented, which turns out to belong to a unique theory. The solutions admit an…
We describe the dimensional reduction of massive and partially massless spin-2 fields on general Einstein direct product manifolds. As with massless fields, the higher-dimensional gauge symmetry of the partially massless field displays…
We start a program of background independent quantum gravity in eight dimensions. We begin by considering canonical gravity \textit{a la} "Kaluza-Klein" in $D=d+1$ dimensions. We show that our canonical gravity approach can be applied to…
We obtain D=4 de Sitter gravity coupled to SU(2) Yang-Mills gauge fields from an explicit and consistent truncation of D=11 supergravity via Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction on a non-compact space. The ``internal'' space is a smooth…
We provide a re-analysis of the $5D$ Kaluza-Klein theory by implementing the polymer representation of the dynamics, both on a classical and a quantum level, in order to introduce in the model information about the existence of a cut-off…
