Double Compactification

arXiv:1502.06677 · doi:10.1007/BF02723076

Abstract

A cosmological scenario according to which our universe experienced space-time compactifications twice in its early development is investigated through toy models. In this scenario gauge configurations on an extra space play essential roles to bring about a change of the dimensionality of the compactified space. Simple models are offered and their behaviour at finite temperature is examined. A possibility of causing inflation and problems on our scenario is argued briefly.
