摘要
In this paper, we revisit the classical mechanism to produce d-dimensional spacetimes via Kaluza-Klein compactification. We made the assumption that the (d + 1)-dimensional bulk geometry M admits a Homothetic Vector Field (HVF) H relaxing the existence of a zero i.e. H ? 0 holds on M and the homothetic bivector F-ab(H) = 0. Under these circumstances, we identify the origin of a positive cosmological constant in the d-dimensional spacetime as the homothetic factor representing a geometrical artifact of late time state of the (d + 1)-dimensional bulk spacetime.
