Scientific paper

Einstein theory can be embedded in Kaluza-Klein theory, and in particular all 4D vacuum solutions can be embedded in 5D (pure) canonical space where spacetime is independent of the extra coordinate. The uniqueness of 5D canonical space is quickly reproven, and its history and implications briefly reviewed. For 4D anti-deSitter space, the 5D space involves a wave running around spacetime, with an associated particle that has a local value of the cosmological 'constant' proportional to the square of the mass.
