有效非均匀暴胀:爱因斯坦真空的曲率不均匀性

Effective inhomogeneous inflation: curvature inhomogeneities of the Einstein vacuum

Thomas Buchert, Nathaniel Obadia

摘要:

我们考虑空间平均的非均匀宇宙模型,并认为,已经在没有源,一个有效的标量场产生通过叶理和空间平均的非均匀几何曲率不变量的爱因斯坦真空。这个标量场(“形态子”)就像一个暴胀子,如果我们规定一个某种一般形式的势。我们表明,对于任何初始负的平均空间曲率,变形子被驱动通过一个膨胀阶段,并导致-平均-一个空间平坦,均匀和各向同性的宇宙模型,提供预热的初始条件,并通过相同的机制,一个可能的自然自我退出。

英文摘要:

We consider spatially averaged inhomogeneous universe models and argue that, already in the absence of sources, an effective scalar field arises through foliating and spatially averaging inhomogeneous geometrical curvature invariants of the Einstein vacuum. This scalar field (the `morphon') acts as an inflaton, if we prescribe a potential of some generic form. We show that, for any initially negative average spatial curvature, the morphon is driven through an inflationary phase and leads - on average - to a spatially flat, homogeneous and isotropic universe model, providing initial conditions for pre-heating and, by the same mechanism, a possibly natural self-exit.
