We consider 5D spaces which admit the most symmetric 3D subspaces. 5D vacuum Einstein equations are constructed and 5D analog of the mass function is found. The corresponding conservation law leads to 5D analog of Birkhoff's theorem. Hence…
Kaluza first observed that the vacuum Einstein equations written in 5 dimensions (5D) reproduce exactly 4D general relativity and classical electrodynamics, when derivatives of the 5D metric with respect to the 5th coordinate are set to…
