如何创建具有内部通量的宇宙

How to Create Universes with Internal Flux

Jean-Luc Lehners, Rahim Leung, K. S. Stelle

摘要:

弦紧化通常需要通量,例如为了稳定模量。这些通量,当它们穿过内部维度时,在本质上是拓扑的,并具有量子化的值。这就提出了一个难题,即它们是如何在早期宇宙中出现的,因为它们不能逐渐被打开。在$6$和$8$维度的字符串启发模型的工作,我们表明,存在无边界的解决方案,其中存在的内部通量从宇宙的创造向前。无边界的建议,因此可以解释的起源通量在卡鲁扎-克莱因的背景下。事实上,它作为一个选择原则,因为只有当通量具有正确的大小,导致有效势为正且足够平坦以加速膨胀时,才存在无边界解。在选定的通量范围内,无边界波函数赋予较小通量值较高的概率。我们的模型说明了宇宙学如何可以作为一个可能的高维解决方案的景观过滤器。

英文摘要:

String compactifications typically require fluxes, for example in order to stabilise moduli. Such fluxes, when they thread internal dimensions, are topological in nature and take on quantised values. This poses the puzzle as to how they could arise in the early universe, as they cannot be turned on incrementally. Working with string inspired models in $6$ and $8$ dimensions, we show that there exist no-boundary solutions in which internal fluxes are present from the creation of the universe onwards. The no-boundary proposal can thus explain the origin of fluxes in a Kaluza-Klein context. In fact, it acts as a selection principle since no-boundary solutions are only found to exist when the fluxes have the right magnitude to lead to an effective potential that is positive and flat enough for accelerated expansion. Within the range of selected fluxes, the no-boundary wave function assigns higher probability to smaller values of flux. Our models illustrate how cosmology can act as a filter on a landscape of possible higher-dimensional solutions.
