Unification with Enlarged Kaluza-Klein Dimensions
In minimal theories with extra spatial dimensions at scales μ0 much lower than the conventional GUT scale, unification can give too-large predictions for α3(MZ) given α1(MZ) and α2(MZ) as empirical input. We systematically study the effects of adding extra states above the compactification scale on running of the gauge couplings and find several simple examples that give unification where all α...
متن کاملKaluza-Klein States from Large Extra Dimensions
We consider the novel Kaluza-Klein (KK) scenario where gravity propagates in the 4 + n dimensional bulk of spacetime, while gauge and matter fields are confined to the 3 + 1 dimensional world-volume of a brane configuration. For simplicity we assume compactification of the extra n dimensions on a torus with a common scale R, and identify the massive KK states in the four-dimensional spacetime. ...
متن کاملTopology change from Kaluza-Klein dimensions
In this letter we show that in a Kaluza-Klein framework we can have arbitrary topology change between the macroscopic (i.e. noncompactified) spacelike 3-hypersurfaces. This is achieved by using the compactified dimensions as a catalyser for topology change. In the case of odddimensional spacetimes (such as the 11-dimensional M-theory) this is always possible. In the even-dimensional case, a suf...
متن کاملKaluza-Klein Pistons with non-Commutative Extra Dimensions
We calculate the scalar Casimir energy and Casimir force for a R×N Kaluza-Klein piston setup in which the extra dimensional space N contains a non-commutative 2sphere, SFZ . The cases to be studied are T d × SFZ and SFZ respectively as extra dimensional spaces, with T d the d dimensional commutative torus. The validity of the results and the regularization that the piston setup offers are exami...
متن کاملHigher Loop Effects on Unification via Kaluza-Klein Thresholds
We discuss higher loop corrections to gauge coupling renormalization in the context of gauge coupling unification via Kaluza-Klein thresholds. We show that in the case of N = 1 supersymmetric compactifications the one-loop threshold contributions are dominant, while the higher loop correction are subleading. This is due to the fact that at heavy Kaluza-Klein levels the spectrum as well as the i...
