Geodesic behaviour around cosmological milestones
In this paper we provide a thorough classification of Friedman-Lemâıtre-RobertsonWalker (FLRW) cosmological models in terms of the strong or weak character of their singularities according to the usual definitions. The classification refers to a generalised Puiseux power expansion of the scale factor of the model around a singular event.
متن کاملCosmological constant and vacuum energy
The general thermodynamic analysis of the quantum vacuum, which is based on our knowledge of the vacua in condensed-matter systems, is consistent with the Einstein earlier view on the cosmological constant. In the equilibrium Universes the value of the cosmological constant is regulated by matter. In the empty Universe, the vacuum energy is exactly zero, λ = 0. The huge contribution of the zero...
متن کاملBoundary conditions and the cosmological constant.
We discuss a model in which the boundary condition decides the four dimensional cosmological constant. It is reviewed in a primitive way that boundary conditions are required by the action principle.
متن کاملCosmological Uses of Casimir Energy
A precise zeta-function calculation shows that the contribution of the vacuum energy to the observed value of the cosmological constant can possibly have the desired order of magnitude albeit the sign strongly depends on the topology of the universe. The non-renormalizable, infinite contributions which have been recently shown to occur when one physically imposes boundary conditions on quantum ...
متن کاملCosmological Acceleration from Energy Influx
We discuss the cosmological evolution of a 3-brane Universe in the presence of energy influx from the bulk. We show that this influx can lead to accelerated expansion on the brane, depending on the equations of state of the bulk and brane matter. The absorption of non-relativistic bulk matter by the brane at an increasing rate leads to a small positive acceleration parameter during the era of m...
