修正引力理论中的末日:经典和量子方法

Doomsdays in a modified theory of gravity: A classical and a quantum approach

Imanol Albarran, Mariam Bouhmadi-López, Che-Yu Chen, Pisin Chen

摘要:

到目前为止,宇宙学是最令人兴奋的研究课题之一,就我们目前掌握的大量观测资料而言,更是如此。如果暗能量遵循某些模式,这些观测可能表明不同类型的末日。其中两个末日是小撕裂(LR)和小兄弟的大撕裂(LSBR)。在这项工作中,除了证明LR和LSBR在Eddington-inspired-Born-Infeld(EiBI)场景中的可解释性外,我们还对EiBI理论进行了量子分析,从经典的角度来看,这将不可避免地导致一个以LR或LSBR结束的宇宙。基于修正的惠勒-德威特方程,我们证明,这种致命的结局似乎是可以避免的。

英文摘要:

By far cosmology is one of the most exciting subject to study, even more so with the current bulk of observations we have at hand. These observations might indicate different kinds of doomsdays, if dark energy follows certain patterns. Two of these doomsdays are the Little Rip (LR) and Little Sibling of the Big Rip (LSBR). In this work, aside from proving the unavoidability of the LR and LSBR in the Eddington-inspired-Born-Infeld (EiBI) scenario, we carry out a quantum analysis of the EiBI theory with a matter field, which, from a classical point of view would inevitably lead to a universe that ends with either LR or LSBR. Based on a modified Wheeler-DeWitt equation, we demonstrate that such fatal endings seems to be avoidable.
