    In other words, the cylinder condition of the previous development is dropped, and the stress–energy now comes from the derivatives of the 5D metric with respect to the fifth coordinate. Because the energy–momentum tensor is normally understood to be due to concentrations of matter in four-dimensional space, the above result is interpreted ...

    These three possibilities correspond to parameter k of (0) flat space, (+1) a sphere of constant positive curvature or (−1) a hyperbolic space with constant negative curvature. Here the radial position has been decomposed into a time-dependent scale factor, R ( t ) {\displaystyle R(t)} , and a comoving coordinate, r {\displaystyle r} .
