Scientific paper

The consequences of a period of Weyl invariance in the early universe are investigated. It is argued that the natural outcome of such a period is a Kaluza-Klein style compactification of an internal space in which any time variation of the scale factor of this space is absorbed (via a Weyl transformation) into the gravitational coupling. A five-dimensional test model is shown to undergo exponential inflation of the space-time sector due to a false vacuum state of the non-metric part of the connection.
