Abstract

The stability of classical solutions for a scalar field corresponding to the radius of S n = SO( n + 1)/SO( n) in extended Kaluza-Klein theories is investigated. A stable solution is shown to emerge if an antisymmetric tensor field of rank n−1 or rank-three acquires a nonzero background field strength in S n or in four-dimensional spacetime, respectively.
