We propose a QCD axion model where the origin of PQ symmetry and suppression of axion isocurvature perturbations are explained by introducing an extra dimension. Each extra quark-antiquark pair lives on branes separately to suppress PQ breaking operators. The size of the extra dimension changes after inflation due to an interaction between inflaton and a bulk scalar field, which implies that the PQ symmetry can be drastically broken during inflation to suppress undesirable axion isocurvature fluctuations.

Suppressing Extra-Dimensional Axion Isocurvature Dynamically
Radion dynamics in warped 5D models enhance the axion decay constant during inflation, satisfying CMB isocurvature bounds at higher Hubble scales while restoring the QCD window afterward.

QCD Axion on Hilltop by a Phase Shift of $\pi$
A heavy axion inflaton can shift the QCD axion potential by π, placing the QCD axion at the hilltop and allowing f_a ≳ 3×10^9 GeV to explain all dark matter.
