We show that, for any $d\geq 3$, the one-loop graviton path integral on $S^2\times S^{d-1}$ factorizes into bulk and edge parts. The bulk equals the thermal partition function of an ideal graviton gas in the Lorentzian Nariai geometry. The…

A multidimensional gravitational model on the manifold $M = M_0 \times \prod_{i=1}^{n} M_i$, where M_i are Einstein spaces ($i \geq 1$), is studied. For $N_0 = dim M_0 > 2$ the $\sigma$ model representation is considered and it is shown…
