"An effective two dimensionality" cases bring a new hope to the Kaluza-Klein[like] theories

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

One step towards realistic Kaluza-Klein[like] theories and a loop hole through the Witten's "no-go theorem" is presented for cases which we call an effective two dimensionality cases: In d=2d=2 the equations of motion following from the action with the linear curvature leave spin connections and zweibeins undetermined. We present the case of a spinor in d=(1+5)d=(1+5) compactified on a formally infinite disc with the zweibein which makes a disc curved on an almost S2S^2 and with the spin connection field which allows on such a sphere only one massless normalizable spinor state of a particular charge, which couples the spinor chirally to the corresponding Kaluza-Klein gauge field. We assume no external gauge fields. The masslessness of a spinor is achieved by the choice of a spin connection field (which breaks parity), the zweibein and the normalizability condition for spinor states, which guarantee a discrete spectrum forming the complete basis. We discuss the meaning of the hole, which manifests the noncompactness of the space.
