Classical Analogous of Quantum Cosmological Perfect Fluid Models

چکیده
Quantization in the mini-superspace of a gravity system coupled to a perfect fluid, leads to a solvable model which implies singularity free solutions through the construction of a superposition of the wavefunctions. We show that such models are equivalent to a classical system where, besides the perfect fluid, a repulsive fluid with an equation of state pQ = ρQ is present. This leads to speculate on the true nature of this quantization procedure. A perturbative analysis of the classical system reveals the condition for the stability of the classical system in terms of the existence of an anti-gravity phase. PACS number(s): 04.20.Cv., 04.20.Me The existence of an initial singularity is one of the major drawbacks of the so-called standard cosmological model. It is a general belief that such problem can be solved through the employement of a quantum theory of gravity. Indeed, near the singularity sub-Planckian scales are reached and a classical description of the Universe under this situation is not appropriate. However, there is no consistent quantum theory of gravity untill now, and in this sense the problem of the initial singularity remains of actuality. On the other hand, it is possible to construct a quantum model for the Universe as a whole, through the Wheeler-de Witt equation, based in the ADM decomposition of the gravity sector, which leads to a hamiltonian formulation of general relativity, from which a canonical quantization procedure can be applied. This gives birth to quantum cosmology[1, 8]. Quantum cosmology is not free from problems. First, it can be applied only to geometries where a foliation is possible. Moreover, the hamiltonian formalism leads to a breakdown of general covariance, and the notion of time is lost [3]. There are some recent proposals by which this notion of time can be recovered. One of these proposals is based in the coupling of the gravity sector to a perfect fluid. Using the Schutz’s formulation of a perfect fluid [4], a quantization procedure is possible. The canonical momentum associated with the perfect fluid appears linearly in the Wheeler-de Witt equation, permiting e-mail: [email protected] e-mail: [email protected] e-mail: [email protected] e-mail: [email protected].

Quantum Cosmological Perfect Fluid Model and Its Classical Analogue
The quantization of gravity coupled to a perfect fluid model leads to a Schrödingerlike equation, where the matter variable plays the role of time. The wave function can be determined, in the flat case, for an arbitrary barotropic equation of state p = αρ; solutions can also be found for the radiative non-flat case. The wave packets are constructed, from which the expectation value for the scal...

We consider anisotropic cosmological models with an universe of dimension 4 or more, fac-torized into n ≥ 2 Ricci-flat spaces, containing an m-component perfect fluid of m non-interacting homogeneous minimally coupled scalar fields under special conditions. We describe the dynamics of the universe: It has a Kasner-like behaviour near the singularity and isotropizes during the expansion to infin...

In the isotropic quantum cosmological perfect fluid model, the initial singularity can be avoided, while the classical behaviour is recovered asymptotically. We verify if initial anisotropies can also be suppressed in a quantum version of a classical anisotropic model where gravity is coupled to a perfect fluid. Employing a Bianchi I cosmological model, we obtain a ”Schrödinger-like” equation w...

The object of the present paper is to study spacetimes admitting quasi-conformal curvature tensor. At first we prove that a quasi-conformally flat spacetime is Einstein and hence it is of constant curvature and the energy momentum tensor of such a spacetime satisfying Einstein's field equation with cosmological constant is covariant constant. Next, we prove that if the perfect flui...

A cosmological model describing the evolution of n Ricci-flat spaces (n > 1) in the presence of 1-component perfect-fluid and minimally coupled scalar field is considered. When the pressures in all spaces are proportional to the density: pi = (1 − hi)ρ, hi = const, the Einstein and Wheeler-DeWitt equations are integrated for a large variety of parameters hi.
