  Abstract:
Inhomogeneous multidimensional cosmological models with a higher-dimensional space-time manifold M=M0×∏i=1n Mi  (n ≥ 1) are investigated under dimensional reduction to tensor-multiscalar theories. In the Einstein conformal frame, these theories take the shape of a flat σ model. For the singular case where M0 is two dimensional, the dimensional reduction to dilaton gravity is preformed with different distinguished representations of the action.
