Unification of Higgs and Maxwell fields in Brane-Kaluza-Klein gravity
arXiv:hep-th/0409061
Abstract
The unification of Higgs and electromagnetic fields in the context of higher dimensional gravity is studied. We show that these fields arise from an extra large dimension together with a compact small dimension. The question of the localization of the gauge fields and their relation to junction conditions is also addressed.
