It is shown that, from any n-dimensional Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmology determined for a single scalar field minimally coupled to gravity, one can construct its m-dimensional counterpart, under the assumption of a common time coordinate and a structurally invariant scale factor for both spacetimes, by means of a simple algebraic correspondence relating gravitational constants and scalar field structural functions. If the considered cosmologies are supplemented with a perfect fluid, fitting a wide class of state equations of the form p+ρ=γf(ρ), then any n-dimensional FRW cosmology, coupled to a perfect fluid and a scalar field, possesses an m-dimensional counterpart, and vice versa. In particular, these assertions hold for single scalar field inflation models. A theorem on this respect is demonstrated. Various families of solutions are explicitly given and exhibit their correspondence with 3+1 cosmological spacetimes.
