We investigate the behavior of small perturbations around the Kaluza–Klein monopole in the five-dimensional space–time. We find that the even parity gravitational wave does not propagate in the five-dimensional space–time with Kaluza–Klein monopole provided that the gravitational wave is constant in the fifth direction. We conclude that a gravitational wave and a U(1) magnetic monopole do not coexist in five-dimensional Kaluza–Klein space–time.

By considering the product of the usual four-dimensional space–time with two dimensional space of constant curvature, an interesting black hole solution has recently been found for Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity. It turns out that this as well as all others could easily be made to radiate Vaidya null dust. However, there exists no Kerr analog in this setting. To get the physical feel of the four-dimensional black hole space–times, we study asymptotic behavior of stresses at the two ends, r → 0 and r → ∞.

A theory in which four-dimensional space–time is generalized to a larger space, namely a 16-dimensional Clifford space (C-space) is investigated. Curved Clifford space can provide a realization of Kaluza–Klein. A covariant Dirac equation in curved C-space is explored. The generalized Dirac field is assumed to be a polyvector-valued object (a Clifford number) which can be written as a superposition of four independent spinors, each spanning a different left ideal of Clifford algebra. The general transformations of a polyvector can act from the left and/or from the right, and form a large gauge group which may contain the group U (1) × SU (2) × SU (3) of the standard model. The generalized spin connection in C-space has the properties of Yang–Mills gauge fields. It contains the ordinary spin connection related to gravity (with torsion), and extra parts describing additional interactions, including those described by the antisymmetric Kalb–Ramond fields.
