Accelerating universe emergent from the landscape

چکیده

We propose that the existence of the string landscape suggests the universe can be in a quantum glass state, where an extremely large viscosity is generated, and long distance dynamics slows down. At the same time, the short distance dynamics is not altered due to the separation of time scales. This scenario can help to understand some controversies in cosmology, for example the natural existence of slow roll inflation and dark energy in the landscape, the apparent smallness of the cosmological constant. We see also that moduli stabilization is no longer necessary. We further identify the glass transition point, where the viscosity diverges, as the location of the cosmic horizon. We try to reconstruct the geometry of the accelerating universe from the structure of the landscape, and find that the metric should have an infinite jump when crossing the horizon. We predict that the static coordinate metric for dS space breaks down outside the horizon.

Accelerating universe in two-dimensional noncommutative dilaton cosmology

We show that the phase transition from the decelerating universe to the accelerating universe, which is of relevance to the cosmological coincidence problem, is possible in the semiclassically quantized two-dimensional dilaton gravity by taking into account the noncommutative field variables during the finite time. Initially, the quantum-mechanically induced positive energy from the noncommutat...

Emergent Universe and Phantom Tachyon Model

In this work, I have considered that the universe is filled with normal matter and phantom field (or tachyonic field). If the universe is filled with scalar field, Ellis et al have shown that emergent scenario is possible only for k = +1 i.e. for closed universe and here I have shown that the emergent scenario is possible for closed universe if the universe contains normal tachyonic field. But ...

Accelerating Universe and Event Horizon

It has been argued in the literature that if a universe is expanding with an accelerating rate indefinitely, it presents a challenge to string theories due to the existence of event horizons. We study the fate of a currently accelerating universe. We show that the universe will continue to accelerate indefinitely if the parameter ω = p/ρ of the equation of state is a constant, no matter how man...

Recently, the indication from supernova distance measurements that the expansion of the universe is accelerating has been extensively discussed, including the potential incompatibility of superstring theory with an event horizon in an eternally accelerating universe. In this paper, we study how quintessence and a cosmological constant may affect the fate of the universe. We wish to point out th...

Cosmic Reionisation in the Accelerating Universe

This paper explains the Accelerating Universe, the Special and General Relativity from the observed effects of the accelerating electrons, causing naturally the experienced changes of the electric field potential along the moving electric charges. The accelerating electrons explain not only the Maxwell Equations and the Special Relativity, but the Heisenberg Uncertainty Relation, the wave parti...
