We obtain a class of slowly rotating charged Kaluza-Klein black hole solutions of the five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory with arbitrary dilaton coupling constant. At infinity, the spacetime is effectively four-dimensional. In the absence of the squashing function, our solution reduces to the five-dimensional asymptotically flat slowly rotating charged dilaton black hole solution with two equal angular momenta. We calculate the mass, the angular momentum and the gyromagnetic ratio of these rotating Kaluza-Klein dilaton black holes. It is shown that the dilaton field and the non-trivial asymptotic structure of the solutions modify the gyromagnetic ratio of the black holes. We also find that the gyromagnetic ratio crucially depends on the dilaton coupling constant, α, and decreases with increasing αfor any size of the compact extra dimension.
We compute the Kaluza-Klein spectrum of the non-supersymmetric SO(3)$\,\times\,$SO(3)-invariant AdS$_4$ vacuum of 11-dimensional supergravity, whose lowest-lying Kaluza-Klein modes belong to a consistent truncation to 4-dimensional ${\cal N}=8$ supergravity and are stable. We show that, nonetheless, the higher Kaluza-Klein modes become tachyonic so that this non-supersymmetric AdS$_4$ vacuum is perturbatively unstable within 11-dimensional supergravity. This represents the first example of unstable higher Kaluza-Klein modes and provides further evidence for the AdS swampland conjecture, which …
得到了5D和7 D Kaluza-Klein理论的球对称真空解。这些解决方案是具有恒定横截面尺寸的通量管，位于分别设置在$\pm\infty$处的（+）和（-）卡鲁扎-克莱因的“电”和“磁”电荷之间，并由恒定的卡鲁扎-克莱因"电“和”磁“场填充。这些物体令人惊讶地类似于II型超导体中两个单极子之间形成的通量管，以及被认为在QCD真空中两个夸克之间形成的假设色场通量管。
We reconsider Schoen and Yau's proof of the positive mass theorem from the extra dimensional point of view, and we introduce a modified argument to prove the theorem in the Kaluza-Klein picture. We consider in this study an alternative condition to Jang's equation, which makes the argument more physically intuitive.
Exceptional field theories yield duality covariant formulations of supergravity. We show that they provide a highly efficient tool to compute the Kaluza-Klein mass spectra associated to compactifications around various background geometries relevant for string theory and holographic applications. This includes geometries with little to no remaining symmetries, hardly accessible to standard methods. As an illustration, we work out the masses of some higher Kaluza-Klein multiplets around warped geometries corresponding to some prominent ${\cal N} = 2$ supersymmetric AdS vacua in maximal supergra…
In this paper we study a Kaluza-Klein bubble-type spacetime with a magnetic field first obtained by Sarbach and Lehner in 2005. It is shown that this solution can be derived via a Harrison transformation of a vacuum Kaluza-Klein bubble, and its physical and geometrical quantities are determined. For certain ranges of the magnetic field parameter, this solution carries negative mass. Furthermore, for a given value of magnetic flux, there exist two branches of solutions, and the branch with lower mass is thermodynamically favoured. In light of these properties we interpret the spacetime as anoth…
The connection dynamics of the 5-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory reduced on 4-dimensional spacetime is obtained by performing the Hamiltonian analysis and canonical transformations. Deparametrization is achieved in the spherically symmetric model of the theory without introducing additional matter fields beyond the 5-dimensional gravity. Thus the physical time evolution and the physical spatial coordinate can be provided by the geometrical degrees of freedom in the higher dimensional spacetime.
We study motions of photons in an unmagnetized cold homogeneous plasma medium in the five-dimensional charged static squashed Kaluza-Klein black hole spacetime. In this case, a photon behaves as a massive particle in a four-dimensional spherically symmetric spacetime. We consider the light deflection by the squashed Kaluza-Klein black hole surrounded by the plasma in a weak-field limit. We derive corrections of the deflection angle to general relativity, which are related to the size of the extra dimension, the charge of the black hole and the ratio between the plasma and the photon frequencie…
In this work, we study the generalized Klein-Gordon oscillator with interactions on a curved background within the Kaluza-Klein theory. We solve the generalized Klein-Gordon oscillator in the cosmic string space-time with a linear scalar potential and obtain the energy eigenvalue and corresponding eigenfunction. We show that the energy spectrum depends on the global parameters characterizing the space-time and the confining potential parameter. We also solve the generalized Klein-Gordon oscillator in a magnetic cosmic string background in the Kaluza-Klein theory with a linear scalar potential …
