Abstract
A discussion is given of the Kaluza–Klein monopole and the inherent problem associated with its scalar field. A model that achieves a confinement of this scalar field is presented, whereby a thin boundary layer is imposed on the monopole geometry allowing an exterior geometry with a constant scalar field to be attached. The Gauss–Codazzi formalism then puts strong constraints on the effective stress energy of the boundary.
