Resumo

Cosmological solutions are investigated in Kaluza-Klein models with and without an anti-symmetric tensor field. Thermal and quantum loop effects are taken into account in solving the Einstein equation. It is shown that the Universe, which started in the radiation-dominated era with initial conditions in a certain region, can evolve into a four-dimensional world with compactified extra dimensions in later time.
