Was the universe once comprised solely of 2 dimensions, or maybe even 1?

“The fa­mil­iar three di­men­sions of space—height, width and
length—may have been just one or two when the un­iverse was formed, some phys­i­cists say.

According
to the report, their pro­pos­al holds that the fa­mil­iar three
di­men­sions of space could have been folded in­to two or just one at
ex­tremely high en­er­gies and tem­pe­r­a­tures.
Such cond­i­tions char­ac­ter­ized the un­iverse just af­ter the
“Big Bang” that gave it birth. As the un­iverse cooled, in this view,
more spa­tial di­men­sions would have ap­peared one by one. “
