Quantum Kaluza-Klein Cosmologies (V)
Abstract
Description
In the No-boundary Universe with $d=11$ supergravity, under the $S_n \times S_{11-n}$ Kaluza-Klein ansatz, the only seed instanton for the universe creation is a $S_7 \times S_4$ space. It is proven that for the Freund-Rubin, Englert and Awada-Duff-Pope models the macroscopic universe in which we are living must be 4- instead of 7-dimensional without appealing to the anthropic principle.
