One of the much-debated novel features of theories with extra dimensions is the presence of power-like loop corrections to gauge coupling unification, which have the potential of allowing a significant reduction of the unification scale. A…

In universal extra dimension (UED) models with one compactified extra dimension, a Z_2 symmetry, termed KK-parity, ensures the stability of the lightest Kaluza-Klein particle (LKP). This symmetry leads to two fixed points. In non-minimal…

According to modern quantum physics, at the microlevel, the dimension of space-time is at least 11; we only observe 4 dimensions because the others are compactified: the size along each of the other dimensions is much smaller than the…

The equations of 10 or 11 dimensional supergravity admit supersymmetric compactifications on 7-manifolds of $G_2$ holonomy, but these supergravity vacua are deformed away from special holonomy by the higher-order corrections of string or…
