We investigate the Kaluza-Klein reductions to ten dimensions of the purely gravitational half-BPS M-theory backgrounds: the M-wave and the Kaluza-Klein monopole. We determine the moduli space of smooth (supersymmetric) Kaluza-Klein reductions by classifying the freely-acting spacelike Killing vectors which preserve som…

We investigate Kaluza-Klein metrics with a recurrent light-like vector field over a pseudo-Riemannian manifold.

Study classifies metrics on anti-de Sitter spacetime with specific symmetries.

Kaluza-Klein Theory states that a metric on the total space of a principal bundle $P\rightarrow M$, if it is invariant under the principal action of $P$, naturally reduces to a metric together with a gauge field on the base manifold $M$. We propose a generalization of this Kaluza-Klein principle to higher principal bun…

New black hole solutions with lens space horizons in 5D Kaluza-Klein theory.

Equations of motion of low-energy string effective actions can be conveniently described in terms of generalized geometry and Levi-Civita connections on Courant algebroids. This approach is used to propose and prove a suitable version of the Kaluza-Klein-like reduction. Necessary geometrical tools are recalled.

Develops a Kaluza-Klein theory in affine spaces without metric.

We study topological T-duality for spaces with a semi-free $S^1-$action with isolated fixed points. Physically, these correspond to spacetimes containing Kaluza-Klein monopoles. We demonstrate that the physical dyonic coordinate of such spaces has an analogue in our formalism. By analogy with the Dirac monopole, we stu…

This thesis proposes a global geometric formulation of Extended Field Theories.

We consider the Einstein flow on a product manifold with one factor being a compact quotient of 3-dimensional hyperbolic space without boundary and the other factor being a flat torus of fixed arbitrary dimension. We consider initial data symmetric with respect to the toroidal directions. We obtain effective Einsteinia…

We consider Riemannian 4-manifolds $(X,g_X)$ with a Spin^c-structure and a suitable circle bundle $Y$ over $X$ such that the Spin^c-structure on $X$ lifts to a spin structure on $Y$. With respect to these structures a spinor $φ$ on $X$ lifts to an untwisted spinor $ψ$ on $Y$ and a U(1)-gauge field $A$ for the Spin^c-st…

Many features of dimensional reduction schemes are determined by the breaking of higher dimensional general covariance associated with the selection of a particular subset of coordinates. By investigating residual covariance we introduce lower dimensional tensors --generalizing to one side Kaluza-Klein gauge fields and…

A 12D spinor encodes fermions in a 4D Kaluza-Klein model.

The harmonic sections of the Kaluza-Klein model can be seen as a variant of harmonic maps with additional gauge symmetry. Geometrically, they are realized as sections of a fiber bundle associated to a principal bundle with a connection. In this paper, we investigate geometric and analytic aspects of a model that combin…

We consider differential operators acting on densities of arbitrary weights on manifold $M$ identifying pencils of such operators with operators on algebra of densities of all weights. This algebra can be identified with the special subalgebra of functions on extended manifold $\hat M$. On one hand there is a canonical…

The paper presents new formulations of gauge and gravity theories using dynamical principal bundles.

In this paper, a complete analysis of symmetries and conservation laws for the charged squashed Kaluza--Klein black hole spacetime in a Riemannian space is discussed. First, a comprehensive group analysis of the underlying space-time metric using Lie point symmetries are presented and then it the $n$-dimensional optima…

Bootstrap bounds on Einstein manifolds using semidefinite programming.

A general approach to formulation of supergravity in higher order anisotropic superspaces (containing as particular cases different supersymmetric extensions and prolongations of Riemann, Finsler, Lagrange and Kaluza--Klein spaces) is given. We analyze three models of locally anisotropic supergravity.

This paper contains a classification of smooth Kaluza--Klein reductions (by one-parameter subgroups) of the maximally supersymmetric anti de Sitter backgrounds of supergravity theories. We present a classification of one-parameter subgroups of isometries of anti de Sitter spaces, discuss the causal properties of their …

The model integrates Standard Model bosons into a higher-dimensional spacetime.

We produce new examples, both explicit and analytical, of bi-axisymmetric stationary vacuum black holes in 5 dimensions. A novel feature of these solutions is that they are asymptotically locally Euclidean in which spatial cross-sections at infinity have lens space $L(p,q)$ topology, or asymptotically Kaluza-Klein so t…

We classify and construct all the smooth Kaluza-Klein reductions to ten dimensions of the M2- and M5-brane configurations which preserve some of the supersymmetry. In this way we obtain a wealth of new supersymmetric IIA backgrounds describing composite configurations of D-branes, NS-branes and flux/nullbranes; bound s…

The theory of locally anisotropic superspaces (supersymmetric generalizations of various types of Kaluza--Klein, Lagrange and Finsler spaces) is laid down. In this framework we perform the analysis of construction of the supervector bundles provided with nonlinear and distinguished connections and metric structures. Tw…

We classify generalised supersymmetric fluxbranes in type II string theory obtained as Kaluza-Klein reductions of the Minkowski space vacuum of eleven-dimensional supergravity. We obtain two families of smooth solutions which contains all the known solutions, new solutions called nullbranes, and solutions interpolating…

The purpose of this work is to extend the formalism of stochastic calculus to the case of spaces with local anisotropy (modeled as vector bundles with compatible nonlinear and distinguished connections and metric structures and containing as particular cases different variants of Kaluza--Klein and generalized Lagrange …

The Lagrangian and Hamiltonian structures for an ideal gauge-charged fluid are determined. Using a Kaluza-Klein point of view, the equations of motion are obtained by Lagrangian and Poisson reductions associated to the automorphism group of a principal bundle. As a consequence of the Lagrangian approach, a Kelvin-Noeth…

We construct a general approach to decomposition of the tangent bundle of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds into direct sums of subbundles, and the associated decomposition of geometric objects. An invariant structure {\cal H}^r defined as a set of r projection operators is used to induce decomposition of the geometric objec…

This article studies the harmonicity of vector fields on Riemannian manifolds, viewed as maps into the tangent bundle equipped with a family of Riemannian metrics. Geometric and topological rigidity conditions are obtained, especially for surfaces and vector fields of constant norm, and existence is proved on two-tori.…

We formulate the theory of nearly autoparallel maps (generalizing conformal transforms) of locally anisotropic spaces and define the nearly autoparallel integration as the inverse operation to both covariant derivation and deformation of connections by nearly autoparallel maps. By using this geometric formalism we cons…

We propose in this paper a new approach to the Kaluza-Klein idea of a five dimensional space-time unifying gravitation and electromagnetism, and extension to higher-dimensional space-time. By considering a natural geometric definition of a matter fluid and abandoning the usual requirement of a Ricci-flat five dimension…

The …

By means of a Kaluza-Klein type argument we show that the Perelman's F-functional is the Einstein-Hilbert action in a space with extra ``phantom'' dimensions. In this way, we try to interpret some remarks of Perelman in the introduction and at the end of the first section in his first famous paper. As a consequence the…

We show that the recent work of Lee [23] implies existence of a large class of new singularity-free strictly static Lorentzian vacuum solutions of the Einstein equations with a negative cosmological constant. This holds in all space-time dimensions greater than or equal to four, and leads both to strictly static soluti…
