Aspects of universal extra dimensional models and their latticized   versions
  In this work some aspects of models with universal extra dimensions are studied. In particular, in the case of models with one universal extra dimension their phenomenology is investigated and used to extract bounds on the size of the extra dimension. In addition, the phenomenology of their latticized counterparts is also investigated. The running of the gauge coupling constants in models with an arbitrary number of universal extra dimensions is revisited. The possible reliable determination of the power corrections that appear is studied. Finally, a model with one non-universal extra dimension is presented to compare the results in these kind of scenarios with the universal ones.
