Geometric Flow Equations for the Number of Space‐Time Dimensions

Abstract: In this paper we consider new geometric flow equations, called D-flow, which describe the variation of space-time geometries under the change of the number of dimensions. The D-flow is originating from the non-trivial dependence of the volume of space-time manifolds on the number of space-time dimensions and it is driven by certain curvature invariants. We will work out specific examples of D-flow equations and their solutions for the case of D-dimensional spheres and Freund-Rubin compactified space-time manif… Show more

“…We omit such technical details in this work because they can be derived in abstract form following geometric principles and the Convention 2 (26). For recent applications in high energy physics, we cite [23,24,25,26,27] where the normalizing function is postulated as a dilaton field and associative and commutative versions of metric-dilaton Ricci flows are investigated. Certain geometric flow equations can be also motivated as star product R-flux deformations of a two-dimensional sigma model with beta functions and dilaton field (see equations ( 79) and (80) in [23]).…”
