Abstract

The ultra-violet behavior of Kaluza-Klein theories on a one dimensional orbifold is discussed. An extension of dimensional regularization that can be applied to a compact dimension is presented. Using this, the FI-tadpole is calculated in the effective KK theory resulting from compactifying supersymmetric theories in 5 dimensions.
