Kaluza-Klein Models and Solutions

5D Abelian Theory
* Effective 4D fields: If the 5D metric has a Killing vector field along the 5th dimension, one gets a 4D metric, a scalar field (the size of the orbit, or norm of the Killing vector), and a 1-form that can be identified with the electromagnetic one.

Particular Solutions > s.a. black holes in higher dimensions.
* From lower dimensions: From a 4D solution g_ab, then a 5D one is ⁵ds² = g_ab dx^a dx^b + d²; From every stationary solution in 3 + p dimensions, one can get a static one in 3 + p + 1 dimensions.
