On the nature of singularities in plane symmetric scalar field cosmologies
نویسنده
چکیده
The nature of the initial singularity in spatially compact plane symmetric scalar field cosmologies is investigated. It is shown that this singularity is crushing and velocity dominated and that the Kretschmann scalar diverges uniformly as it is approached. The last fact means in particular that a maximal globally hyperbolic spacetime in this class cannot be extended towards the past through a Cauchy horizon. A subclass of these spacetimes is identified for which the singularity is isotropic.

متن کاملExact plane symmetric cosmological solutions for a massless scalar field and cosmological constant
The Klein-Gordon equations were recently solved in general relativity for the case of a plane-symmetric static massless scalar field with cosmological constant. By analytic continuation, time-dependent solutions can be obtained that correspond to cosmologies. These spacetimes are studied here, and include among them a solution exhibiting both early inflation and later continued rapid expansion ...
متن کاملNumerical investigation of cosmological singularities.
A primary unresolved issue for cosmological singularities is whether or not their behavior is locally of the Mixmaster type (as conjectured by Belinskii, Khalatnikov, and Lifshitz (BKL)). The Mixmaster dynamics first appears in spatially homogeneous cosmologies of Bianchi Types VIII and IX. A multiple of the spatial scalar curvature acts as a closed potential leading, in the evolution toward th...
متن کاملSymmetries of Homogeneous Cosmologies
We reformulate the dynamics of homogeneous cosmologies with a scalar field matter source with an arbitrary selfinteraction potential in the language of jet bundles and extensions of vector fields. In this framework, the Bianchi— scalar field equations become subsets of the second Bianchi jet bundle, J , and every Bianchi cosmology is naturally extended to live on a variety of J . We are interes...

Non-singular two and three dimensional string cosmologies are constructed using the exact conformal field theories corresponding to SO(2,1)/SO(1,1) and SO(2,2)/SO(2,1). All semi-classical curvature singularities are canceled in the exact theories for both of these cosets, but some new quantum curvature singularities emerge. However, considering different patches of the global manifolds, allows ...
