Scientific paper

This is a pedagogical introduction into the possible uses and effects of extra dimensions in electroweak (TeV scale) physics, and in particular to models of electroweak symmetry breaking via boundary conditions ("higgsless models"). It is self contained: all the aspects of extra dimensional and electroweak physics used here are reviewed, before we apply these concepts to higgsless models. In the first lecture gauge theories in an extra dimension and on an interval are discussed. In the second lecture we describe the basic structure of higgsless models, while in the third lecture we discuss fermions in extra dimensions and the inclusion of fermions into higgsless models. The final lecture is devoted to the issue of electroweak precision observables in theories beyond the standard model and its applications to extra dimensional theories and in particular the higgsless models.
