Abstract
A consistent definition of high dimensional compactified quantum field theo ry without breaking the Kaluza-Klein tower is proposed. It is possible in t he limit when the size of compact dimensions is of the order of the cut off . This limit is nontrivial and depends on the geometry of compact dimension s. Possible consequences are discussed for the scalar model. (C) 2000 Elsev ier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
