In these lectures the author has surveyed a selection of work on the basic ideas and methods of the models with large extra dimensions and braneworlds. The extra dimensions are used in order to provide models for the unification of the fundamental interactions in physics. Thus one obtained the unification of gravity and gauge interactions of elementary particles, the quantization of gravitational interactions, the Higgs mass hierarchy problem, the cosmological constant problem. The author presents an introduction to \(D\)-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theories, by using the direct product of the usual \(4\)-dimensional Minkowski space-time with a compact manifold \(X^{D-4}\) of extra dimensions -- called an internal manifold. He considers the action related to a physical field \(\Phi (x_\mu, y),\;\mu=0,1,2,3\), obtaining the unification of Einstein gravity with electromagnetism in a \(5d\) theory. The braneworlds are studied in the next section obtaining the localizations of the fermions. Next, the author deals with braneworlds with compact extra dimensions, braneworlds with warped extra dimensions and braneworlds with infinite volume extra dimensions. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1047.83001].
