    Notes: Abstract We consider ways to generalize the 4D Klein–Gordon equation of particle physics to higher dimensions. The most promising approach implies that the mass which appears in the 4D relation is a term in the source-free 5D relation. We check this explicitly for the case of exact solitonic and cosmological solutions of the Kaluza–Klein equations. In general, particle masses are variable; but are constant for the Schwarzschild and late-universe cases, in agreement with data from the solar system and astrophysics. Our results have significant implications for cosmology, and can easily be extended to 10D superstrings, 11D supergravity and higher dimensions.
