摘要:

一致渐近近似方法提供了一种强有力的、系统改进的、误差可控的方法来构造Friedmann-Robertson-Walker宇宙微扰模函数的精确解析近似解,特别适用于在考虑引力量子效应后修改相对论线性色散关系的情况.这些模型包括弦/M理论、圈量子宇宙学和霍瓦瓦-利夫希茨量子引力。在本文中,我们扩展了我们以前的研究的一阶近似高阶的情况下,修改的色散关系(线性或非线性)只有一个转折点(或零)。我们得到了三阶以下标量和张量扰动的功率谱和谱指数的一般表达式,在三阶以下的误差界为$\lesssim 0.15\%$。作为这些公式的应用,我们计算了具有非线性幂律色散关系的慢卷暴胀的功率谱和谱指数。为了检验我们公式的一致性,我们进一步将自己限制在相对论的情况下,并计算相应的功率谱,谱指数和运行到二阶。然后,我们将所得结果与格林函数法所得结果进行了比较,并明确地表明,在允许的误差范围内,这两种方法所得结果是一致的。

英文摘要:

The uniform asymptotic approximation method provides a powerful, systematically-improved, and error-controlled approach to construct accurate analytical approximate solutions of mode functions of perturbations of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe, designed especially for the cases where the relativistic linear dispersion relation is modified after gravitational quantum effects are taken into account. These include models from string/M-Theory, loop quantum cosmology and Hořava-Lifshitz quantum gravity. In this paper, we extend our previous studies of the first-order approximations to high orders for the cases where the modified dispersion relation (linear or nonlinear) has only one-turning point (or zero). We obtain the general expressions for the power spectra and spectral indices of both scalar and tensor perturbations up to the third-order, at which the error bounds are $\lesssim 0.15\%$. As an application of these formulas, we calculate the power spectra and spectral indices in the slow-roll inflation with a nonlinear power-law dispersion relation. To check the consistency of our formulas, we further restrict ourselves to the relativistic case, and calculate the corresponding power spectra, spectral indices and runnings to the second-order. Then, we compare our results with the ones obtained by the Green function method, and show explicitly that the results obtained by these two different methods are consistent within the allowed errors.
