Abstract

Considering gravitational waves propagating on the most general 4+ N -dimensional space-time, we investigate the effects due to the N extra dimensions on the four-dimensional waves. All wave equations are derived in general and discussed. On Minkowski 4 times an arbitrary Ricci-flat compact manifold, we find: a massless wave with an additional polarization, the breathing mode, and extra waves with high frequencies fixed by Kaluza-Klein masses. We discuss whether these two effects could be observed.

  • Gravitational radiation for spacetimes with compact dimensions has not yet been studied beyond linearized gravity, or in the special case of a circle compactification.

    “Somewhat surprisingly, gravitational radiation for spacetimes with compact dimensions has not yet been studied beyond linearized gravity, or in the special case of a circle compactification [10-12].”

    From Gravitational memory and compact extra dimensions (2022) · cites this paper as [10]

    The Background and state of the art (p. 3) says earlier work often used flat extra dimensions or circles, and identifies a study of a single-circle polarization effect. But it also reports a waveform correction for fairly general compact extra dimensions and does not establish that gravitational radiation had not been studied beyond linearized gravity. Section 2 (p. 6) says this paper derives linearized equations; that describes its own approach, not the limits of all prior work. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
