    Description
We study non-perturbatively five-dimensional gauge theories by means of
the mean-field expansion on the lattice. On the anisotropic torus we show 
that a continuum limit can be defined where the anisotropy is a relevant
parameter. The analysis of the static force supports the fact that the
four-dimensional hyperplanes decouple from each other in the continuum limit.
Clear signs of confinement are found in the static potential along the
hyperplanes.
