Minkowski Compactification without Fine-Tuning
M. Gasperini · Progress of Theoretical Physics · 1985
Considering in particular the compactification of six-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory, and introducing a self-interacting scalar field coupled to gravity, it is shown that a Ricci flat four-dimensional space-time can be obtained at a classical level even in the absence of adjustable parameters. This result is generalized to D-dimensional gravitational theories with compactification induced by antisymmetric tensor fields.
