Problematic aspects of Kaluza–Klein excitations in multidimensional models with Einstein internal spaces

Abstract: We consider Kaluza-Klein (KK) models where internal spaces are compact Einstein spaces. These spaces are stabilized by background matter (e.g., monopole form-fields). We perturb this background by a compact matter source (e.g., the system of gravitating masses) with the zero pressure in the external/our space and an arbitrary pressure in the internal space. We show that the Einstein equations are compatible only if the matter source is smeared over the internal space and perturbed metric components do not depe… Show more

“…Obviously, such multidimensional theories should not contradict the experimental data, in particular, the well-known gravitational tests in the Solar system: deflection of light, time delay of radar echoes and perihelion precession of Mercury. We investigated this problem in a number of our previous papers [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] and one of the main conclusions of these papers is that in the case of Ricci-flat internal spaces, the model with pressureless gravitating mass contradicts gravitational tests [5]. The negative result follows as a consequence of massless fluctuations of the internal space that generate the fifth force [13].…”

“…These studies are for the two cases, presented in this paper, under consideration. There are, however, several proposals in the literature which suggest the compactification scheme and discuss it [54,55]. We are not yet able to comment them from the point of view of our two discussed cases.…”
