英文摘要：

Recent work on the Szekeres inhomogeneous cosmological models uncovered a surprising rotation effect. Hellaby showed that the angular $(θ, ϕ)$ coordinates do not have a constant orientation, while Buckley and Schlegel provided explicit expressions for the rate of rotation from shell to shell, as well as the rate of tilt when the 3-space is embedded in a flat 4-d Euclidean space. We here investigate some properties of this embedding, for the quasi-spherical recollapsing case, and use it to show that the two sets of results are in complete agreement. We also show how to construct Szekeres models that are closed in the 'radial' direction, and hence have a 'natural' embedded torus topology. Several explicit models illustrate the embedding as well as the shell rotation and tilt effects.

You Can't Get Through Szekeres Wormholes - or - Regularity, Topology and Causality in Quasi-Spherical Szekeres Models

The spherically symmetric dust model of Lemaitre-Tolman can describe wormholes, but the causal communication between the two asymptotic regions through the neck is even less than in the vacuum (Schwarzschild-Kruskal-Szekeres) case. We investigate the anisotropic generalisation of the wormhole topology in the Szekeres model. The function E(r, p, q) describes the deviation from spherical symmetry if \partial_r E \neq 0, but this requires the mass to be increasing with radius, \partial_r M > 0, i.e. non-zero density. We investigate the geometrical relations between the mass dipole and the locii o…

Geometry and topology of the quasi-plane Szekeres model

This paper is a revised version of arXiv:0805.0529 and Phys.Rev. D78, 064038 (2008), taking into account the erratum published in Phys.Rev. D85, 069903(E) (2012). Geometrical and topological properties of the quasi-plane Szekeres model and of the plane symmetric dust model are discussed. Some related comments on the quasi-hyperbolical model are made. These properties include: (1) The pattern of expansion in the plane symmetric case, and the Newtonian model that imitates it; (2) The possibility of toroidal topology of the $t =$ const sections in the plane symmetric model; (3) The absence of app…

Symmetry and Equivalence in Szekeres Models

We solve for all Szekeres metrics that have a single Killing vector. For quasi hyperboloidal ($ε= -1$) metrics, we find that translational symmetries are possible, but only in metrics that have shell crossings somewhere, while metrics that can be made free of shell crossings only permit rotations. The quasi planar metrics ($ε= 0$) either have no Killing vectors or they admit full planar symmetry. Single symmetries in quasi spherical metrics ($ε= +1$) are all rotations. The rotations correspond to a known family of axially symmetric metrics, which for each $ε$ value, are equivalent to each othe…

Frame Rotation in the Szekeres Spacetimes

The Szekeres metric is an inhomogeneous cosmological model without any symmetries. The standard Riemann-type coordinates can be transformed into spherical-type coordinates, but the metric is no longer diagonal, and the constant "radius" 2-spheres, 2-hyperboloids or 2-planes are known to be "non-concentric". Since the transformation into spherical-type coordinates is "radius" dependent, we question whether these coordinates have the same orientation on each 2-surface. To answer this question, we set up an orthonormal tetrad (ONT), and investigate its variation. We find that a relative rotation …

Physical geometry of the quasispherical Szekeres models

The quasispherical Szekeres metric is an exact solution to Einstein's equations describing an inhomogeneous and anisotropic cosmology. Though its governing equations are well-known, there are subtle, often-overlooked details in how the model's functions relate to its physical layout, including the shapes and relative positions of structures. We present an illustrated overview of the quasispherical Szekeres models and show exactly how the model functions relate to the physical shape and distribution of matter. In particular, we describe a shell rotation effect that has not previously been fully…

The Strongly Attached Point Topology of the Abstract Boundary For Space-Time

The abstract boundary construction of Scott and Szekeres provides a `boundary' for any n-dimensional, paracompact, connected, Hausdorff, smooth manifold. Singularities may then be defined as objects within this boundary. In a previous paper by the authors, a topology referred to as the attached point topology was defined for a manifold and its abstract boundary, thereby providing us with a description of how the abstract boundary is related to the underlying manifold. In this paper, a second topology, referred to as the strongly attached point topology, is presented for the abstract boundary c…

The Attached Point Topology of the Abstract Boundary For Space-Time

Singularities play an important role in General Relativity and have been shown to be an inherent feature of most physically reasonable space-times. Despite this, there are many aspects of singularities that are not qualitatively or quantitatively understood. The abstract boundary construction of Scott and Szekeres has proven to be a flexible tool with which to study the singular points of a manifold. The abstract boundary construction provides a 'boundary' for any n-dimensional, paracompact, connected, Hausdorff, smooth manifold. Singularities may then be defined as entities in this boundary -…

Use of Gödel Universe to Construct A New Zollfrei Metric with $R^2 \times S^1$ Topology

A new example of $(2+1)$-dimensional Zollfrei metric, with the topology $R^2 \times S^1 $, is presented. This metric is readily obtained from the celebrated $(3+1)$- dimensional rotating Gödel universe $G_{3,1}$. This is because $G_{3,1}$ has the interesting property that, the light rays which are confined to move on the plane perpendicular to the rotation axis, return to their origin after a time period $T = \frac{2 π}ω[\sqrt{2}-1]$ -where $ω$ is the angular velocity of the universe. Hence by - the topological identification of pairs of points on the time coordinate, seperated by the time int…

Topological and rotating effects on the Dirac field in the spiral dislocation spacetime

By considering a spacetime with a spiral dislocation, we analyse the behaviour of the Dirac field subject to a hard-wall confining potential. In search of relativistic bound states solutions, we discuss the influence of the topology of the spiral dislocation spacetime on the energy levels. Further, we analyse the effects of rotation on the Dirac field in the spiral dislocation spacetime. We show that both rotation and the topology of the spacetime impose a restriction on the values of the radial coordinate. Thus, we analyse the effects of rotation and the topology of the spiral dislocation spa…

Quantum Field Theory in a Topology Changing Universe

We propose a method to construct quantum theory of matter fields in a topology changing universe. Analytic continuation of the semiclassical gravity of a Lorentzian geometry leads to a non-unitary Schrödinger equation in a Euclidean region of spacetime, which does not have a direct interpretation of quantum theory of the Minkowski spacetime. In this Euclidean region we quantize the Euclidean geometry, derive the time-dependent Schrödinger equation and find the quantum states using the Liouville-Neumann method. The Wick rotation of these quantum states provides the correct Hilbert space of matt…
