Inhomogeneous compact extra dimensions and de Sitter cosmology

Abstract In the framework of multidimensional f(R) gravity, we study the possible metrics of compact extra dimensions assuming that our 4D space has the de Sitter metric. Manifolds described by such metrics could be formed at the inflationary and even higher energy scales. It is shown that in the pr...
