Kaluza-Klein theory

This was the first of the extra dimensional theories, which later came to be known as Kaluza-Klein theory.

The Kaluza-Klein theory is striking because it has a particularly elegant presentation in terms of geometry.

It can be seen as building upon the Kaluza-Klein theory which proposed a 4+1-dimensional theory of gravity.

He also started working on supergravity, string theory and Kaluza-Klein theory.

They reintroduced Kaluza-Klein theory as a way of making sense of the extra dimensions.

In string theory, compactification is a generalization of Kaluza-Klein theory.

Kaluza-Klein theory introduces extra dimensions to explain the fundamental forces other than gravity (originally only electromagnetism).

String theory is a resurrected form of the Kaluza-Klein theory, although vastly more sophisticated.

Kaluza-Klein theory, a five-dimensional extension of general relativity unifying gravitation and electromagnetism.

String theory also requires extra spatial dimensions which have to be compactified as in Kaluza-Klein theory.

Kaluza-Klein theory today is seen as essentially a gauge theory, with gauge group the circle group.

In Kaluza-Klein theory, the gravitational curvature of the extra spatial direction behaves as an additional force similar to electromagnetism.

There is no experimental evidence to date that supports string theory's predictions of supersymmetry and Kaluza-Klein theory extra dimensions.

In Kaluza-Klein theory this group suggests that gauge symmetry is the symmetry of circular compact dimensions.

The Kaluza-Klein theory attempts to unify gravitation and electromagnetism, in a five-dimensional spacetime.

However, for Kaluza-Klein theories, the Scherk-Schwarz mechanism is a possibility which can't be neglected.

Such a theory is a typical Kaluza-Klein theory with a set of scalar fields arising from compactified dimensions.

Recent research shows that an extended Kaluza-Klein theory is in general not equivalent to Yang-Mills theory, as the former contains additional terms.

He has also contributed to the Kaluza-Klein theory that represents a geometric and unified theory of electromagnetism and gravitation.

W' bosons also arise in Kaluza-Klein theories with SU(2) in the bulk.

Kaluza's insight is remembered as the Kaluza-Klein theory (also named after physicist Oskar Klein).

The dilaton made its first appearance in Kaluza-Klein theory, a five-dimensional theory that combined gravitation and electromagnetism.

It also appears in Kaluza-Klein theory's compactifications of extra dimensions when the volume of the compactified dimensions vary.

So, in Kaluza-Klein theories, after dimensional reduction, the effective Planck mass varies as some power of the volume of compactified space.
