Compactification

The extra six dimensions must curl up into a tiny geometrical space

	Since spacetime geometry is determined dynamically (as in General Relativity), only geometries that satisfy the equations are possible.
	The HE superstring theory on a particular kind of six-dimensional space — a Calabi-Yau space — resembles the Standard Model of particle physics at low energies.
