Birefringence in pseudo–Finsler spacetimes
Based on the analogue spacetime programme, and many other ideas currently mooted in “quantum gravity”, there is considerable ongoing speculation that the usual pseudoRiemannian (Lorentzian) manifolds of general relativity might eventually be modified at short distances. Two specific modifications that are often advocated are the adoption of Finsler geometries (or more specifically, pseudo-Finsl...
متن کاملFermat Principle in Finsler Spacetimes
It is shown that, on a manifold with a Finsler metric of Lorentzian signature, the lightlike geodesics satisfy the following variational principle. Among all lightlike curves from a point q (emission event) to a timelike curve γ (worldline of receiver), the lightlike geodesics make the arrival time stationary. Here “arrival time” refers to a parametrization of the timelike curve γ. This variati...
متن کاملString Theory in Cosmological Spacetimes
Progress on string theory in curved spacetimes since 1992 are reviewed. After a short introduction on strings in Minkowski and curved spacetimes, we focus on strings in cosmological spacetimes. The classical behaviour of strings in FRW and inflationary spacetimes is now understood in a large extent from various types of explicit string solutions. Three different types of behaviour appear in cos...
متن کاملTrapped surfaces in cosmological spacetimes.
We investigate the formation of trapped surfaces in cosmological spacetimes, using constant mean curvature slicing. Quantitative criteria for the formation of trapped surfaces demonstrate that cosmological regions enclosed by trapped surfaces may have matter density exceeding significantly the background matter density of the flat and homogeneous cosmological model. 04.20.Me, 95.30.Sf, 97.60.Lf...
متن کاملGravitational backreaction in cosmological spacetimes
We develop a new formalism for the treatment of gravitational backreaction in the cosmological setting. The approach is inspired by projective techniques in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. We employ group-averaging with respect to the action of the isotropy group of homogeneous and isotropic spacetimes (rather than spatial averaging), in order to define effective FRW variables for a gene...
