替代引力理论中的哈密顿量与稳定性之比较

Hamiltonian vs stability in alternative theories of gravity

Gilles Esposito-Farese

AI总结:

本研究澄清替代引力理论中哈密顿密度无下界并不必然导致不稳定,提出基于弱能量条件修正形式的坐标无关稳定性判据,并用以证明某 Horndeski Schwarzschild-de Sitter 解在特定参数范围内稳定。

摘要:

当一个哈密顿密度有下界时,我们知道最低能量状态必定稳定。人们常常忍不住把这一定理反过来,因而认为无下界的哈密顿密度总是意味着不稳定性。本报告(总结了我与 E. Babichev、C. Charmousis 和 A. Lehébel 的合作工作)的主要目的,是以教学式方式解释为什么这是错误的。稳定性确实是一种与坐标无关的性质,而哈密顿密度却依赖于坐标选择。在 k-essence 或 Horndeski 理论等替代引力理论中,正确的稳定性判据是广义相对论中著名的“弱能量条件”的一个更微妙版本。作为例证,该判据被应用于一个 Horndeski 理论的精确 Schwarzschild-de Sitter 解;结果发现,在其参数的某个给定范围内,该解是稳定的,这与文献中的一项主张相反。

英文摘要:

When a Hamiltonian density is bounded by below, we know that the lowest-energy state must be stable. One is often tempted to reverse the theorem and therefore believe that an unbounded Hamiltonian density always implies an instability. The main purpose of this presentation (which summarizes my work with E. Babichev, C. Charmousis and A. Lehébel) is to pedagogically explain why this is erroneous. Stability is indeed a coordinate-independent property, whereas the Hamiltonian density does depend on the choice of coordinates. In alternative theories of gravity, like k-essence or Horndeski theories, the correct stability criterion is a subtler version of the well-known "Weak Energy Condition" of general relativity. As an illustration, this criterion is applied to an exact Schwarzschild-de Sitter solution of a Horndeski theory, which is found to be stable for a given range of its parameters, contrary to a claim in the literature.
