A long-standing problem in Kaluza–Klein models is the description of matter dynamics. Within the 5D model, the dimensional reduction of the geodesic motion for a 5D free test particle formally restores electrodynamics, but the reduced 4D particle shows a charge–mass ratio that is upper-bounded, such that it cannot fit in with any kind of elementary particle. At the same time, from the quantum dynamics viewpoint, there is the problem of the generation of huge massive modes. We present a criticism against the 5D geodesic approach and face the hypothesis that in Kaluza–Klein space the geodesic motion does not deal with the real dynamics of the test particle. We propose a new approach: starting from the conservation equation for the 5D matter tensor, within the Papapetrou multipole expansion, we prove that the 5D dynamical equation differs from the 5D geodesic one. Our new equation provides right coupling terms without bounding and in such a scheme the tower of massive modes is removed.

We analyze some unphysical features of the geodesic approach to matter coupling in a compactified Kaluza-Klein scenario, like the q/m puzzle and the huge massive modes. We propose a new approach, based on Papapetrou multipole expansion, that provides a new equation for the motion of a test particle. We show how this equation provides right couplings and does not generate huge massive modes.

We discuss the vertical dimensional reduction of M-sbranes to domain walls in D=7 and D=4, by dimensional reduction on Ricci-flat four-manifolds and seven-manifolds. In order to interpret the vertically-reduced five-brane as a domain wall solution of a dimensionally-reduced theory in D=7, it is necessary to generalize the usual Kaluza–Klein ansatz, so that the three-form potential in D=11 has an additional term that can generate the necessary cosmological term in D=7. We show how this can be done for general four-manifolds, extending previous results for toroidal compactifications. By contrast, no generalization of the Kaluza–Klein ansatz is necessary for the compactification of M-theory to a D=4 theory that admits the domain-wall solution coming from the membrane in D=11.

We have presented cosmological models in five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein space-time with a variable gravitational constant (G) and cosmological constant (Λ). We have investigated Einstein’s field equations for five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein space-time in the presence of perfect fluid with time dependent G and Λ. A variety of solutions have been found in which G increases and Λ decreases with time t, which matches with current observation. The properties of fluid and kinematical parameters have been discussed in detail.

We have constructed five dimensional FRW cosmological models for k=-1,1,0 in Lyra manifold with time dependent displacement field. The matter field is considered in the form of a perfect fluid with isotropic matter pressure. It is found that the model for k=-1 is inflationary. For k=1, the model is inflationary for set of values of arbitrary constant n and decelerates in the standard way for another set of values of n. Moreover the concept of Lyra manifold does not exist at infinite time.
