In Kaluza-Klein theories of low-scale quantum gravity, gravitons and isosinglet neutrinos may propagate in a higher-dimensional space with large compact dimensions, whereas all particles of the Standard Model are confined on a…
We consider the scale at which gravity becomes strong in linearized General Relativity coupled to the gauge-Higgs unified(GHU) model. We also discuss the unitarity of S-matrix in the same framework. The Kaluza-Klein(KK) gauge bosons, KK…
New results and perspectives precipitate from the (modified as) Kaluza ansatz 2 (KA2), whereby, instead of appending $n$ Planck-scale (${\rm L_o}$) compact SL dimensions to ordinary 4D spacetime, one augments $n$ such dimensions by 3 large…
Universal Extra Dimensions (UEDs) with compactification radius near the TeV scale provide interesting phenomenology at future colliders. The collider signals of the first Kaluza-Klein (KK) level are very similar to those of a supersymmetric…
We show that in multidimensional Kaluza-Klein models the formula of the perihelion shift is $D\pi m'^2c^2r_g^2/[2(D-2)M^2]$ where $D$ is a total number of spatial dimensions. This expression demonstrates good agreement with experimental…
Supersymmetry breaking in string perturbation theory predicts the existence of a new dimension at the TeV scale. The simplest realization of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model in the context of this mechanism has two important…
We critically revisit the issue of power-law running in models with extra dimensions. The analysis is carried out in the context of a higher-dimensional extension of QED, with the extra dimensions compactified on a torus. It is shown that a…
Five-dimensional field theories compactified on an S^1/Z_2 orbifold naturally include local brane kinetic terms at the orbifold fixed points at the tree as well as the quantum level. We study the quantization of these theories before the…
Extra dimensions with a bulk dilaton field can be power-law warped, unlike the exponential warping in the Randall-Sundrum (RS) model. We show that this mildly warped extra dimension can address the hierarchy problem with a novel…
We study the process e^+e^- --> W^+W^- to probe low-scale gravity at high energy linear colliders. A characteristic signature of extra-dimensions models is the forward-backward asymmetry due to the interference of spin-2 graviton and spin-1…
We discuss the Kaluza-Klein threshold correction to low energy gauge couplings in theories with warped extra-dimension, which might be crucial for the gauge coupling unification when the warping is sizable. Explicit expressions of one-loop…
A non geometric sector of the duality group emerging in Kaluza-Klein reductions is realized as an effective symmetry in the low energy action of uncompactified type II theories. This is achieved by extending the so called $\beta$ symmetry…
In this review, we give a brief introduction on the aspects of some extra dimension models and the five-dimensional thick brane models in extended theories of gravity. First, we briefly introduce the Kaluza-Klein theory, the domain wall…
We study recent data on deep inelastic e^+ p scattering at HERA to constrain the parameters of a Randall-Sundrum-type scenario of quantum gravity with a small extra dimension and a non-factorable geometry.
Non-supersymmetric black holes carrying both electric and magnetic charge with respect to a single Kaluza-Klein gauge field have much in common with supersymmetric black holes. Angular momentum conservation and other general physics…
We consider a model where sterile neutrinos can propagate in a large compactified extra dimension (a) giving rise to Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes and the Standard Model left-handed neutrinos are confined to a 4-dimensional spacetime brane. The…
We derive type IIB vacua which are very promising to put string theory to experimental test. These are Calabi-Yau compactifications with a 4D fibration over a 2D base. The moduli are fixed in such a way to obtain a very anisotropic…
We study a class of flux compactifications that have all the moduli stabilised, a high (GUT) string scale and a low (TeV) gravitino mass that is generated dynamically. These non-geometric compactifications correspond to type II string…
Scattering amplitudes involving massive spin-2 particles typically grow rapidly with energy. In this paper we demonstrate that the anomalous high-energy growth of the scattering amplitudes cancel for the massive spin-2 Kaluza-Klein modes…
Astrophysical constraints of new physics are often limited to weakly interacting light particles, such as axions, the Kaluza-Klein (KK) gravitons from the ADD model, sterile neutrinos and unparticles. We discuss the possibility for an…
