A modified Kaluza-Klein theory is proposed in which propagation takes place only at the speed of light. The propagation can be confined to a small volume, forming a particle with rest mass. The usual four space-time coordinates locate the…
Extra dimension provides an attractive way to break symmetry by boundary conditions which can be useful to construct a natural grand unified theory avoiding the doublet-triplet splitting problem and the proton decay problem. It can provide…
5D Kaluza-Klein gravity has several nonasymptotically flat solutions which generally, possessed both electric and magnetic charges. In this paper we suggest that these solutions can act as quantum virtual handles (wormholes) in spacetime…
In this paper we study a Kaluza-Klein bubble-type spacetime with a magnetic field first obtained by Sarbach and Lehner in 2005. It is shown that this solution can be derived via a Harrison transformation of a vacuum Kaluza-Klein bubble, and…

Based on some ideas emerged from the classical Kaluza-Klein theory, we present a $5D$ universe as a product bundle over the $4D$ spacetime. This enables us to introduce and study two categories of kinematic quantities (expansions, shear,…
