A Dynamical Systems Approach to the Tilted Bianchi Models of Solvable Type

چکیده

We use a dynamical systems approach to analyse the tilting spatially homogeneous Bianchi models of solvable type (e.g., types VIh and VIIh) with a perfect fluid and a linear barotropic γ-law equation of state. In particular, we study the late-time behaviour of tilted Bianchi models, with an emphasis on the existence of equilibrium points and their stability properties. We briefly discuss the tilting Bianchi type V models and the late-time asymptotic behaviour of irrotational Bianchi VII0 models. We prove the important result that for non-inflationary Bianchi type VIIh models vacuum plane-wave solutions are the only future attracting equilibrium points in the Bianchi type VIIh invariant set. We then investigate the dynamics close to the plane-wave solutions in more detail, and discover some new features that arise in the dynamical behaviour of Bianchi cosmologies with the inclusion of tilt. We point out that in a tiny open set of parameter space in the type IV model (the loophole) there exists closed curves which act as attracting limit cycles. More interestingly, in the Bianchi type VIIh models there is a bifurcation in which a set of equilibrium points turn into closed orbits. There is a region in which both sets of closed curves coexist, and it appears that for the type VIIh models in this region the solution curves approach a compact surface which is topologically a torus.

Bianchi Cosmologies: a Tale of Two Tilted Fluids

We use a dynamical systems approach to study Bianchi type VI0 cosmological models containing two tilted γ-law perfect fluids. The full state space is 11-dimensional, but the existence of a monotonic function simplifies the analysis considerably. We restrict attention to a particular, physically interesting, invariant subspace and find all equilibrium points that are future stable in the full 11...

Late-time Behaviour of the Tilted Bianchi Type Vi−1/9 Models

We study tilted perfect fluid cosmological models with a constant equation of state parameter in spatially homogeneous models of Bianchi type VI −1/9 using dynamical systems methods and numerical simulations. We study models with and without vorticity, with an emphasis on their future asymptotic evolution. We show that for models with vorticity there exists, in a small region of parameter space...

We study the late-time behaviour of tilted perfect fluid Bianchi type III models using a dynamical systems approach. We consider models with dust, and perfect fluids stiffer than dust, and eludicate the late-time behaviour by studying the centre manifold which dominates the behaviour of the model at late times. In the dust case, this centre manifold is 3-dimensional and can be considered as a d...

The Late-time Behaviour of Vortic Bianchi Type Viii Universes

We use the dynamical systems approach to investigate the Bianchi type VIII models with a tilted γ-law perfect fluid. We introduce expansion-normalised variables and investigate the late-time asymptotic behaviour of the models and determine the latetime asymptotic states. For the Bianchi type VIII models the state space is unbounded and consequently, for all non-inflationary perfect fluids, one ...

Future asymptotics of tilted Bianchi type II cosmologies

In this paper we study the future asymptotics of spatially homogeneous Bianchi type II cosmologies with a tilted perfect fluid with a linear equation of state. By means of Hamiltonian methods we first find a monotone function for a special tilted case, which subsequently allows us to construct a new set of monotone functions for the general tilted type II cosmologies. In the context of a new pa...
