Noncommutative Kaluza-Klein Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
Efforts have been made recently to reformulate traditional Kaluza-Klein theory by using a generalized definition of a higher-dimensional extended space-time. Both electromagnetism and gravity have been studied in this context. We review some of the models which have been proposed, with a special effort to keep the mathematical formalism to a very minimum.

Quantum Field Theories With Compact Noncommutative Extra Dimensions
We study field theories on spaces with additional compact noncommutative dimensions. As an example, we study φ on R × T 2 θ using perturbation theory. The infrared divergences in the noncompact theory give rise to unusual dynamics for the mode of φ which is constant along the torus. Correlation functions involving this mode vanish. Moreover, we show that the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein excitations...
متن کاملDyons, K-theory and M-theory
We study the dyonic charge of type IIA D6-branes interpreted as M-theory Kaluza-Klein monopoles. The connection between the dyonic properties of type IIA D6-branes and the existence of eleven dimensions is discussed. We also study dyonic properties of noncommutative monopoles. Variations of the external antisymmetric B-field generate the electric charge of non-commutative dyons. E-mail: cesar.g...
متن کاملA Discretized Version of Kaluza-klein Theory with Torsion and Massive Fields
We consider an internal space of two discrete points in the fifth dimension of the Kaluza-Klein theory by using the formalism of noncommutative geometry developed in a previous paper [1] of a spacetime supplemented by two discrete points. With the nonvanishing internal torsion 2-form there are no constraints implied on the vielbeins. The theory contains a pair of tensor, a pair of vector and a ...
متن کاملCasimir Force in Compact Noncommutative Extra Dimensions and Radius Stabilization
We compute the one loop Casimir energy of an interacting scalar field in a compact noncommutative space of R × T 2 θ , where we have ordinary flat 1 + d dimensional Minkowski space and two dimensional noncommuative torus. We find that next order correction due to the noncommutativity still contributes an attractive force and thus will have a quantum instability. However, the case of vector fiel...
متن کاملOn the Equivalence of Noncommutative Models in Various Dimensions and Brane Condensation
Here we construct a map from the algebra of fields in two-dimensional noncommutative of U(1) Yang–Mills fields interacting with Kaluza– Klein scalars to a D-dimensional one, as a solution in the two-dimensional model. This proves the equivalence of noncommutative models in various (even) dimensions. Physically this map describes condensation of D1-branes.
