Perturbative analysis of generalized Einstein’s theories
نویسنده
چکیده
The hypothesis that the energy-momentum tensor of ordinary matter is not conserved separately, leads to a non-adiabatic expansion and, in many cases, to an Universe older than usual. This may provide a solution for the entropy and age problems of the Standard Cosmological Model. We consider two different theories of this type, and we perform a perturbative analysis, leading to analytical expressions for the evolution of gravitational waves, rotational modes and density perturbations. One of these theories exhibits satisfactory properties at this level, while the other one should be discarded.

Elastic/plastic Buckling Analysis of Skew Thin Plates based on Incremental and Deformation Theories of Plasticity using Generalized Differential Quadrature Method
Abstract In this study, generalized differential quadrature analysis of elastic/plastic buckling of skew thin plates is presented. The governing equations are derived for the first time based on the incremental and deformation theories of plasticity and classical plate theory (CPT). The elastic/plastic behavior of plates is described by the Ramberg-Osgood model. The ranges of plate geometries...
متن کاملThe ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density in generalized theories of gravity
Near the horizon of a black brane solution in Anti-de Sitter space, the long-wavelength fluctuations of the metric exhibit hydrodynamic behaviour. For Einstein’s theory, the ratio of the shear viscosity of near-horizon metric fluctuations η to the entropy per unit of transverse volume s is η/s = 1/4π. We propose that, in generalized theories of gravity, this ratio is given by the ratio of two e...

متن کاملGeneralized forms and their applications
The calculus of generalized p-forms,−1 p n, is developed further. On an n-dimensional manifold with metric, M, a (Hodge) star operator, inner product, co-differential and Laplacian operators are introduced. The inner product and Lie derivative with respect to vector fields on M are defined. Applications are made to Hamiltonian mechanics, field theories and Einstein’s vacuum equations. PACS numb...
متن کاملEinstein equations for generalized theories of gravity and the thermodynamic relation δQ = TδS are equivalent
We show that the equations of motion of generalized theories of gravity are equivalent to the thermodynamic relation δQ = TδS. Our proof relies on extending previous arguments by using a more general definition of the Noether charge entropy. We have thus completed the implementation of Jacobson’s proposal to express Einstein’s equations as a thermodynamic equation of state. Additionally, we fin...
