扁平各向同性宇宙中的半经典和量子聚合物效应

Semiclassical and Quantum Polymer Effects in the Flat Isotropic Universe

Gabriele Barca, Paolo Di Antonio, Giovanni Montani, Alberto Patti

摘要:

我们分析了聚合物量子力学应用于平坦各向同性宇宙现象学的一些相关的半经典和量子特征。我们首先研究了平坦各向同性宇宙的半经典聚合物动力学之间的平行性,减少到修改后的简单结构的影响,和所谓的广义不确定原理。我们展示了基本泊松括号的符号的差异是如何反映在弗里德曼方程中的修改后的源项的符号,负责消除聚合物的情况下的初始奇异性和生存的奇点在宇宙的过去,当广义不确定原理的关注。然后,我们研究了一个自由无质量标量场的真空能量的正则化,通过实现聚合物量子力学的上下文中的第二量子化形式。我们表明,从这个重新表述,自然出现了一个宇宙学常数项的各向同性宇宙,其值直接取决于聚合物参数的正规化。最后,根据半经典Friedmann方程,我们研究了在修正动力学背景下的引力波的行为。我们证明了宇宙中存在的反弹过去,自然消除了引力波振幅的发散,他们可以,在原则上,传播通过最小体积转折点。这一结果为探测来自大反弹前坍缩宇宙的引力信号提供了有趣的视角。

英文摘要:

We analyze some relevant semiclassical and quantum features of the implementation of Polymer Quantum Mechanics to the phenomenology of the flat isotropic Universe. We firstly investigate a parallelism between the semiclassical polymer dynamics of the flat isotropic Universe, as reduced to the effect of a modified simplectic structure, and the so-called Generalized Uncertainty Principle. We show how the difference in the sign of the fundamental Poisson bracket is reflected in a sign of the modified source term in the Friedmann equation, responsible for the removal of the initial singularity in the polymer case and for the survival of a singular point in the Universe past, when the Generalized Uncertainty Principle is concerned. Then, we study the regularization of the vacuum energy of a free massless scalar field, by implementing a second quantization formalism in the context of Polymer Quantum Mechanics. We show that, from this reformulation, naturally emerges a Cosmological Constant term for the isotropic Universe, whose value depends directly on the polymer parameter of the regularization. Finally, we investigate the behaviour of gravitational waves on the background of a modified dynamics, according to the semiclassical Friedmann equation. We demonstrate that the presence of a Bounce in the Universe past, naturally removes the divergence of the gravitational wave amplitude and they can, in principle, propagate across the minimum volume turning point. This result offers the intriguing perspective for the detection of gravitational signals coming from the pre-Big Bounce collapsing Universe.
