Abstract

In this Letter the five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein cosmological model is studied in the presence of a massless scalar field, whose potential has a flat part. By use of the polynomial relation between the two scale factors, inflationary solutions are obtained. The results show that the scale factor corresponding to the extra dimension is either constant or varies inversely as some power of the usual scale factor.
