Classical and quantized aspects of dynamics in five dimensional relativity

arXiv:gr-qc/0204048 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/19/11/306

Abstract

A null path in 5D can appear as a timelike path in 4D, and for a certain gauge in 5D the motion of a massive particle in 4D obeys the usual quantization rule with an uncertainty-type relation. Generalizations of this result are discussed in regard to induced-matter and membrane theory.
