群场论凝聚宇宙学中的分离宇宙框架

The separate universe framework in group field theory condensate cosmology

Florian Gerhardt, Daniele Oriti, Edward Wilson-Ewing

摘要:

我们在分离宇宙框架下研究了基于多重凝聚量子态的量子引力的群场论形式中的宇宙学扰动。工作与一组场论行动的重力最低限度地耦合到四个标量场,可以作为一组相关的时钟和杆,我们认为,这些多凝聚态对应于宇宙时空的小长波长标量扰动。导出了宇宙学扰动的运动方程,在经典极限下与广义相对论的标准结果一致,并且包含了当时空曲率接近普朗克尺度时变得重要的量子引力修正。

英文摘要:

We use the separate universe framework to study cosmological perturbations within the group field theory formalism for quantum gravity, based on multi-condensate quantum states. Working with a group field theory action for gravity minimally coupled to four scalar fields that can act as a set of relational clock and rods, we argue that these multi-condensate states correspond to cosmological space-times with small long-wavelength scalar perturbations. Equations of motion for the cosmological perturbations are derived, which in the classical limit agree with the standard results of general relativity and also include quantum gravity corrections that become important when the space-time curvature approaches the Planck scale.
