We generalize a five dimensional black hole solution of low energy effective string theory to arbitrary constant spatial curvature. After interchanging the signature of time and radius we reduce the 5d solution to four dimensions and obtain…
We calculate dimensional reduction of gravitational flux tube solutions in the scheme of Kaluza-Klein theory. The fifth dimension is compacified to a region of Planck size. Assuming the width of the tube to be also Planck size we obtain…
Using invariant transformations of the five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein (KK) field equations, we find a series of formulae to derive axial symmetric stationary exact solutions of the KK theory starting from static ones. The procedure presented…
In (4 + 1) gravity the assumption that the five-dimensional metric is independent of the fifth coordinate authorizes the extra dimension to be either spacelike or timelike. As a consequence of this, the time coordinate and the extra…
We present a four-dimensional double-black-hole (or dihole) solution in Kaluza-Klein theory, describing a superposition of an electrically charged and a magnetically charged black hole. This system can be balanced for appropriately chosen…
Spacetime singularities are studied in both the $D+d$-dimensional string theory and its $D$-dimensional effective theory, obtained by the Kaluza-Klein compactification. It is found that spacetime singularities in the low dimensional…
We consider a Kaluza-Klein vacuum solution which is closely related to the Gross-Perry-Sorkin (GPS) magnetic monopole. The solution can be obtained from the Euclidean Taub-NUT solution with an extra compact fifth spatial dimension within…
Kaluza-Klein theory is a 5-dimensional Einstein general relativity; it has the interest of describing on an equal footing the laws of gravitation and electromagnetism in a geometrically unified way. We present it in Chapter 1, and we…
We make a systematic investigation of stationary cylindrically symmetric solutions to the five-dimensional Einstein and Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet equations. Apart from the five-dimensional neutral cosmic string metric, we find two new exact…
Kaluza-Klein monopole and H-monopole solutions, which are T-dual to each other, are the well-known solutions of string theory compactified on $T^6$. Since string theory in this case has an S-duality symmetry, we explicitly construct the…
It is shown that in the standard vacuum 5D Kaluza-Klein gravity there is wormhole-like solutions which look like strings attached to two D-branes. The asymptotical behaviour of the corresponding metric is investigated.
The dynamics of a string near a Kaluza-Klein black hole are studied. Solutions to the classical string equations of motion are obtained using the world sheet velocity of light as an expansion parameter. The electrically and magnetically…
Bubbles are point-like regular solutions of the higher-dimensional Kaluza-Klein equations that appear as naked singularities in four dimensions. We analyze all such possible solutions in 5D Kaluza-Klein theory that are static and…
We study static vortex type solutions of pure gravity for $D \geq 4+1 $. Non-singular vortex solutions can be obtained by considering periodic Kaluza-Klein monopoles. We also show that away from the center of the vortices the space is…
It is well known that the Kaluza-Klein monopole of Sorkin, Gross and Perry can be obtained from the Euclidean Taub-NUT solution with an extra compact fifth spatial dimension via Kaluza-Klein reduction. In this paper we consider…
Using the language of differential forms, the Kaluza-Klein theory in 4+1 dimensions is derived. This theory unifies electromagnetic and gravitational interactions in four dimensions when the extra space dimension is compactified. Without…
In this brief review we discuss the viability of a multidimensional geometrical theory with one compactified dimension. We discuss the case of a Kaluza Klein fifth dimensional theory, addressing the problem by an overview of the…
The Kaluza-Klein compactification in the limit of large number of extra dimensions is studied. Starting point is the Einstein-Hilbert action plus cosmological constant in 4+D dimensions. It is shown that in the large D limit the effective…
We consider a new 3-parameter class of exact 4-dimensional solutions in closed string theory and solve the corresponding string model, determining the physical spectrum and the partition function. The background fields (4-metric,…
Effective field theories with (large) extra dimensions are studied within a physical regularization scheme provided by string theory. Explicit string calculations then allow us to consistently analyze the ultraviolet sensitivity of…
