The quantum state of an electron in a strong laser field is altered if the interaction of the electron with its own electromagnetic field is taken into account. Starting from the Schwinger-Dirac equation, we determine the states of an…
We consider a condition for a charge confinement and gravito-electromagnetic wave solutions in the Nonsymmetric Kaluza-Klein Theory.We consider also an influence of a cosmological constant on a static,spherically symmetric solution.We…
Einstein's general relativity relates the curvature of space time, a second order differential property, to the stress-energy-momentum tensor. In this paper we ask whether it is possible to develop a first order theory relating space-time…
In the framework of Kaluza-Klein theory, we investigate a $(4+1)$-dimensional universe consisting of a $(4+1)$ dimensional Robertson-Walker type metric coupled with a $(4+1)$ dimensional energy-momentum tensor. The matter part consists of…
We review higher-dimensional unified theories from the general relativity, rather than the particle physics side. Three distinct approaches to the subject are identified and contrasted: compactified, projective and noncompactified. We…
Massive particles on timelike paths in spacetime can be viewed as moving on null paths in a higher-dimensional manifold. This and other consequences follow from the use of Campbell's theorem to embed 4D general relativity in…
To better understand the scalar field typical of higher-dimensional extensions of general relativity, we analyse three classes of solutions. In all, the field equation for the extra dimension resembles the Klein-Gordon equation, and we…
We find a family of exact solutions of Einstein equations describing the field of a static axisymmetric thin disk living in six-dimensional space-time. In particular, we study the disks constructed (by cutting out the central part of the…
One of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model (SM) is an extra U(1) gauge group under which SM matter does not carry any charge. The associated boson -- the hidden photon -- then interacts via kinetic mixing with the ordinary photon.…
A purely geometrical relativity theory results from a construction that produces from three-dimensional space a happy unification of Kaluza's five-dimensional theory and Weyl's conformal theory. The theory can provide geometrical…
We present a model in which elementary particles and forces are unified in the framework of quantum field theory in higher dimensions. The particles include gauge bosons, quarks and leptons, as well as the Higgs bosons and the forces…
Using six-dimensional quantum electrodynamics ($QED_6$) as an example we study the one-loop renormalization of the theory both from the six and four-dimensional points of view. Our main conclusion is that the properly renormalized four…
Unimodular gravity became an object of increasing interest in the late $80$-ties and was recently used in primordial Universe modeling with cosmological constant, in the context of the Brans-Dicke gravity including scalar field. In the…
A classical circularly polarized electromagnetic wave carries angular momentum, and represents the classical limit of a photon, which carries quantized spin. It is shown that a very similar picture of a circularly polarized coherent wave…
We consider a 5D warped scenario with a KK-parity symmetry, where the non-trivial warping arises from the dynamics that stabilizes the size of the extra dimension. Generically, the lightest Kaluza-Klein (KK) particle is the first excitation…
It is shown that electrons and photons can be considered as composities of particles representating the fundamental representation of the extended Lorentz group $SU(3)\otimes SU(3)$ in (8+1) dimensional space-time which are held together by…
Universal extra dimensions, presumably observable at some high-energy scale, would modify low-energy observables, being particularly relevant for physical processes forbidden at tree level by the Standard Model. We address the Kaluza-Klein…
In models featuring extra spatial dimensions, particle collisions in the early universe can produce Kaluza-Klein gravitons. Such particles will later decay, potentially impacting the process of Big Bang nucleosynthesis. In this paper, we…
Starting from a model of an elastic medium, partial differential equations with the form of the coupled Einstein-Dirac-Maxwell equations are derived. The form of these equations describes particles with mass and spin coupled to…
It is proposed a formalism of quantification of the electric charges in the Kaluza Klein theory of five dimensions and a explanation of the cause of the variation of the electromagnetic fine-structure constant in cosmological times.There is…
