Homework Statement:: Please see below.
Relevant Equations:: Please see below.

I am trying to find a reference to a textbook or a paper that details the following time-invariance Kaluza-Klein metric:

\begin{equation}
\mathrm{d}s^2_{(5)}=\lambda_{ab}\left(\mathrm{d}x^a+\omega^{a}_{\phantom{a}i}\mathrm{d}x^i\right)(\mathrm{d}x^b+\omega^{b}_{\phantom{b}j}\mathrm{d}x^j)+\frac{1}{\tau}h_{ij}\mathrm{d}x^i\mathrm{d}x^j.
\end{equation}

So far, I can only find sources for the Kaluza-Klein metric but not it's time-invariant version. Can someone point me to a relevant reference?

I guess you tried the classical books on M-theory and Superstring of Joseph Polichinski, GWS green books or Kaku's books. (mind you, Kaku has also popular books but I am referring to his technical books).
Have you?
 
Yes @MathematicalPhysicist I have perused Polichinski's book in particular and could not find a mention of the time-invariant Kaluza-Klein metric.
 
This is an alert about a claim regarding the standard model, that got a burst of attention in the past two weeks. The original paper came out last year: "The electroweak η_W meson" by Gia Dvali, Archil Kobakhidze, Otari Sakhelashvili (2024) The recent follow-up and other responses are "η_W-meson from topological properties of the electroweak vacuum" by Dvali et al "Hiding in Plain Sight, the electroweak η_W" by Giacomo Cacciapaglia, Francesco Sannino, Jessica Turner "Astrophysical...
Hello everyone, I am seeking to better understand the conceptual foundations and potential consequences of "Two-Time Physics" (2T-physics), as developed by Itzhak Bars and others. My interest was sparked by a recent paper that attempts to explain anomalous results in particle physics (apparent superluminal propagation of virtual photons) within the framework of 2T-physics: Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.02696 Key quote from the abstract: *"...the problem... can be solved naturally...
