LTB尘埃模型中的重力熵

Gravitational entropies in LTB dust models

Roberto A Sussman, Julien Larena

摘要:

我们考虑了一般的Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi(LTB)尘埃模型来探测Clifton,Ellis和Tavakol(CET)以及Hosoya和Buchert(HB)的引力熵提议。我们还考虑一个合适的准本地标量加权平均的基础上的HB建议的变体。我们表明,所有建议的熵增长的条件是直接相关的能量密度和哈勃标量的类似波动的负相关性。虽然这种相关性是在本地评估的CET建议,它必须在一个非本地域依赖的方式评估的两个HB建议。通过在相关的渐近极限看这些条件的履行,我们能够提供一个良好的接地定性描述的全时间演化和径向渐近缩放的三个熵在通用模型。对于这三种方案,我们得到了以下严格的分析结果:(i)当密度增长模占优势时,熵增长;(ii)所有不断膨胀的双曲模型在其演化后期都达到一个稳定的终端平衡,其特征是熵极大值的非齐次性;(iii)具有衰减模式和坍缩椭圆模型的区域表现出与熵最小值相关的不稳定平衡(iv)在奇点附近,CET熵发散,而HB熵收敛;(v)CET熵收敛于所有模型的径向渐近范围内,而HB熵仅收敛于模型渐近FLRW背景。事实上,不同的独立建议在一般的LTB模型中产生相当相似的熵产生,时间演化和径向标度条件,这似乎表明他们共同的“引力熵”概念可能是一个理论上可靠的概念,适用于更一般的时空。

英文摘要:

We consider generic Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) dust models to probe the gravitational entropy proposals of Clifton, Ellis and Tavakol (CET) and of Hosoya and Buchert (HB). We also consider a variant of the HB proposal based on a suitable quasi-local scalar weighted average. We show that the conditions for entropy growth for all proposals are directly related to a negative correlation of similar fluctuations of the energy density and Hubble scalar. While this correlation is evaluated locally for the CET proposal, it must be evaluated in a non--local domain dependent manner for the two HB proposals. By looking at the fulfillment of these conditions at the relevant asymptotic limits we are able to provide a well grounded qualitative description of the full time evolution and radial asymptotic scaling of the three entropies in generic models. The following rigorous analytic results are obtained for the three proposals: (i) entropy grows when the density growing mode is dominant, (ii) all ever-expanding hyperbolic models reach a stable terminal equilibrium characterized by an inhomogeneous entropy maximum in their late time evolution; (iii) regions with decaying modes and collapsing elliptic models exhibit unstable equilibria associated with an entropy minimum (iv) near singularities the CET entropy diverges while the HB entropies converge; (v) the CET entropy converges for all models in the radial asymptotic range, whereas the HB entropies only converge for models asymptotic to an FLRW background. The fact that different independent proposals yield fairly similar conditions for entropy production, time evolution and radial scaling in generic LTB models seems to suggest that their common notion of a "gravitational entropy" may be a theoretically robust concept applicable to more general spacetimes.
