The dynamical fermion mass generation in the four-dimensional brane is discussed in a model with five-dimensional Kaluza–Klein fermions in interaction with four-dimensional fermions. It is found that the dynamical fermion masses are generated beyond the critical radius of the compactified extra dimensional space and may be made small compared with the masses of the Kaluza–Klein modes.

For strong interaction two new fermion mass units 105.32 MeV and 11450 MeV are assumed. Existence of "Integral charge quark bosons", "Integral charge effective quark fermions", "Integral charge (effective) quark fermi-gluons" and "Integral charge quark boso-gluons" are assumed and their masses are estimated. It is noticed that, characteristic nuclear charged fermion is Xs · 105.32 = 938.8 MeV and corresponding charged boson is Xs(105.32/x) = 415.0 where Xs = 8.914 is the inverse of the strong coupling constant and x = 2.26234 is a new number by using which "super symmetry" can be seen in "strong and weak" interactions. 11450 MeV fermion and its boson of mass = 11450/x = 5060 MeV plays a crucial role in "sub quark physics" and "weak interaction". 938.8 MeV strong fermion seems to be the proton. 415 MeV strong boson seems to be the mother of the presently believed 493,496 and 547 MeV etc, strange mesons. With 11450 MeV fermion "effective quark-fermi-gluons" and with 5060 MeV boson "quark boso-gluon masses" are estimated. "Effective quark fermi-gluons" plays a crucial role in ground state charged baryons mass generation. Light quark bosons couple with these charged baryons to form doublets and triplets. "Quark boso-gluons" plays a crucial role in ground state neutral and charged mesons mass generation. Fine and super-fine rotational levels can be given by [I or (I/2)] power(1/4) and [I or (I/2)] power(1/12) respectively. Here, I = n(n+1) and n = 1, 2, 3, ….

The augmentation of general relativity’s spacetime by one or more dimensions is described by Kaluza-Klein theory and is within testable limits. Should an extra dimension be observable and significant, it would be beneficial to know how physical properties would differ from “conventional” relativity. In examining the class of five-dimensional solutions analogous to the four-dimensional Schwarzschild solution, we examine where the origin to the system is located and note that it can differ from the four-dimensional case. Furthermore, we study circular orbits and find that the 5D case is much richer; photons can have stable circular orbits in some instances, and stable orbits can exist right to the new origin in others. Finally, we derive both gravitational and inertial masses and find that they do not generally agree, although they can in a limiting case. For all three examinations, it is possible to obtain the four-dimensional results in one limiting case, that of the Schwarzschild solution plus a flat fifth dimension, and that the differences between 4D and 5D occur when the fifth dimension obtains any sort of significance.
