In the framework of the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary proposal, we investigatequantum creation of the multidimensional universe with the cosmologicalconstant $\Lambda$ but without matter fields. In this paper we solved theWheeler-de Witt equation numerically. We find that the universe in which bothof the spaces expand exponentially is the most probable in this model.Comment: 6 pages and 3 figure
