Cosmological Constant Problems and Renormalization Group
The Cosmological Constant Problem emerges when Quantum Field Theory is applied to the gravitational theory, due to the enormous magnitude of the induced energy of the vacuum. The unique known solution of this problem involves an extremely precise fine-tuning of the vacuum counterpart. We review a few of the existing approaches to this problem based on the account of the quantum (loop) effects a...
متن کاملA Renormalization Group Approach to the Cosmological Constant Problem
In an earlier paper, it is proposed that, due to resonance tunneling effect, tunneling from a large cosmological constant Λ site in the stringy comic landscape can be fast, while tunneling from a small Λ site may take exponentially long time. Borrowing the renormalization group analysis of the conductance in the Anderson localization transition, we treat the landscape as a multi-dimensional ran...
متن کاملCosmological constant, renormalization group and Planck scale physics
Starting from generic quantum effects at the Planck scale MP , we find that the renormalization group running of the cosmological constant (CC) at low energies is possible if there is a smooth decoupling of all massive particles from MP to the mass of the lightest neutrino, mν . We discuss the theoretical implications of this running for the “old” and “new” cosmological constant problems. Inter...
متن کاملRenormalization Group Approach to Cosmological Back Reaction Problems
We investigated the back reaction of cosmological perturbations on the evolution of the universe using the second order perturbation of the Einstein’s equation. To incorporate the back reaction effect due to the inhomogeneity into the framework of the cosmological perturbation, we used the renormalization group method. The second order zero mode solution which appears by the non-linearities of ...
متن کاملCosmological Models and Renormalization Group Flow
We study cosmological solutions of Einstein gravity with a positive cosmological constant and perfect fluid matter in diverse dimensions. These include big-bang models that re-collaspse, big-bang models that approach de Sitter acceleration at late times, and bounce models that are both past and future asymptotically de Sitter. The re-collapsing and the bounce geometries are all tall in the sens...
