宇宙学反弹的量子性质

Quantum nature of cosmological bounces

Martin Bojowald

摘要:

已知有几个例子,其中量子引力效应通过反弹解决了经典大爆炸奇点。最详细的分析可能发生在由自由无质量标量源的各向同性模型的圈量子宇宙学中。一旦在相当一般的条件下实现了反弹,核心问题是它的量子行为有多强,量子效应对其外观有什么影响,以及反弹之外的量子时空可能是什么样子。这一点,然后,必须考虑到有效的方程,正确地描述了演变,并可用于进一步的唯象研究。在这里,我们提供了第一个分析与相互作用的物质与新的有效方程有效的弱自相互作用或小质量。它们与自由标量方程有关键的区别,对反弹及其周围的时空有重要的影响,特别是压缩态的作用,这在本文中经常被忽视。对于不相关的状态,证明了反弹的存在,但是由于压缩是一种动力学性质,并且可能随时间变化,因此需要进一步的工作来得出一般性的结论。

英文摘要:

Several examples are known where quantum gravity effects resolve the classical big bang singularity by a bounce. The most detailed analysis has probably occurred for loop quantum cosmology of isotropic models sourced by a free, massless scalar. Once a bounce has been realized under fairly general conditions, the central questions are how strongly quantum it behaves, what influence quantum effects can have on its appearance, and what quantum space-time beyond the bounce may look like. This, then, has to be taken into account for effective equations which describe the evolution properly and can be used for further phenomenological investigations. Here, we provide the first analysis with interacting matter with new effective equations valid for weak self-interactions or small masses. They differ from the free scalar equations by crucial terms and have an important influence on the bounce and the space-time around it. Especially the role of squeezed states, which have often been overlooked in this context, is highlighted. The presence of a bounce is proven for uncorrelated states, but as squeezing is a dynamical property and may change in time, further work is required for a general conclusion.
