Quiescent Cosmological Singularities
The most detailed existing proposal for the structure of spacetime singularities originates in the work of Belinskii, Khalatnikov and Lifshitz. We show rigorously the correctness of this proposal in the case of analytic solutions of the Einstein equations coupled to a scalar field or stiff fluid. More specifically, we prove the existence of a family of spacetimes depending on the same number of...
متن کاملCosmological Singularities *
An overview is provided of the singularity theorems in cosmological contexts at a level suitable for advanced graduate students. The necessary background from tensor and causal geometry to understand the theorems is supplied, the mathematical notion of a cosmology is described in some detail and issues related to the range of validity of general relativity are also discussed. ∗To be published i...
متن کاملCosmological theory without singularities.
A theory of gravitation is constructed in which all homogeneous and isotropic solutions are nonsingular, and in which all curvature invariants are bounded. All solutions for which curvature invariants approach their limiting values approach de Sitter space. The action for this theory is obtained by a higher-derivative modification of Einstein s theory. We expect that our model can easily be gen...
متن کاملHolography and Cosmological Singularities
Certain null singularities in ten dimensional supergravity have natural holographic duals in terms of Matrix Theory and generalizations of the AdS/CFT correspondence. In many situations the holographic duals appear to be well defined in regions where the supergravity develops singularities. We describe some recent progress in this area. Based on talks given at CTP Symposium, Cairo, Egypt (March...
متن کاملBraneworld cosmological singularities
The purpose of this brief report is to present some results of our on-going project on the asymptotic behaviour of braneworld-type solutions on approach to their possible finite ‘time’ singularities. Cosmological singularities in such frameworks have served as means to attack the cosmological constant problem (see and references therein). The main mathematical tool of our analysis is the method...
