Resumen:
Using the modern Kaluza?Klein theory of gravity (or the Induced Matter theory), we study the Diracequation for massive neutrinos on a de Sitter background metric from a 5D Riemann-flat (and henceRicci-flat) extended de Sitter metric, on which is defined the vacuum for test massless 1/2-spin neutralfields minimally coupled to gravity and free of any other interactions. We obtain that the effective 4Dmasses of the neutrinos can only take three possible values, which are related to the (static) foliation of the fifth and noncompact extra dimension.
