共形引力中时空奇点的逼近

Approaching a spacetime singularity in conformal gravity

Leonardo Modesto, Hui-Yu Zhu, Jun-Yan Zhang

摘要:

本文证明了在真空或有物质存在的情况下,卡斯纳时空在爱因斯坦共形引力中是无奇性的。这样的陈述是基于曲率不变量的规则性,以及当时空被有质量、无质量和共形耦合的粒子探测时的测地线完备性。作为正则度规的一个普适特征,在有限的真时间内(对于有质量粒子和共形耦合粒子)或对于有限的仿射参数值(对于无质量粒子),没有任何东西可以到达位于t=0的奇点。

英文摘要:

We hereby show that the Kasner spacetime turns out to be singularity-free in Einstein's conformal gravity in vacuum or in presence of matter. Such a statement is based on the regularity of the curvature invariants and on the geodesic completion of the spacetime when it is probed by massive, massless, and conformally coupled particles. As a universal feature of the regular metric, nothing can reach the singularity located in t=0 in a finite amount of proper time (for massive particles and conformally coupled particles) or for finite values of the affine parameter (for massless particles).
