Hawking-Moss Tunneling in Noncommutative Eternal Inflation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The quantum behavior of noncommutative eternal inflation is quite different from the usual knowledge. Unlike the usual eternal inflation, the quantum fluctuation of noncommutative eternal inflation is suppressed by the Hubble parameter. Due to this, we need to reconsider many conceptions of eternal inflation. In this paper we study the Hawking-Moss tunneling in noncommutative eternal inflation using the stochastic approach. We obtain a brand-new form of the tunneling probability for this process and find that the Hawking-Moss tunneling is more unlikely to take place in the noncommutative case than in the usual one. We also conclude that the lifetime of a metastable de-Sitter (dS) vacuum in the noncommutative spacetime is longer than that in the commutative case.

Is Noncommutative Eternal Inflation Possible?
We investigate the condition for eternal inflation to take place in the noncommutative spacetime. We find that the possibility for eternal inflation’s happening is greatly suppressed in this case. If eternal inflation can not happen in the low energy region where the noncommutativity is very weak (the UV region), it will never happen along the whole inflationary history. Based on these conclusi...
متن کاملAn Open Universe from Valley Bounce
It appears difficult to construct a simple model for an open universe based on the one bubble inflationary scenario. The reason is that one needs a large mass to avoid the tunneling via the Hawking Moss solution and a small mass for successful slowrolling. However, Rubakov and Sibiryakov suggest that the Hawking Moss solution is not a solution for the false vacuum decay process because it does ...
متن کاملNoncommutative Black Hole Thermodynamics
We give a general (metric independent) derivation of the relation Th = K 2π connecting the black hole temperature (Th) with the surface gravity (K), following the tunneling interpretation of Hawking radiation. This derivation is valid even beyond the semi classical regime i. e. when quantum effects are not negligible. The formalism is then applied to a spherically symmetric, stationary noncommu...
متن کامل2 Why Does Inflation Start at the Top of the Hill ?
We show why the universe started in an unstable de Sitter state. The quantum origin of our universe implies one must take a 'top down' approach to the problem of initial conditions in cosmology, in which the histories that contribute to the path integral, depend on the observable being measured. Using the no boundary proposal to specify the class of histories, we study the quantum cosmological ...
متن کاملRegulating Eternal Inflation II The Great Divide
In a previous paper, two of the authors presented a " regulated " picture of eternal inflation. This picture both suggested and drew support from a conjectured discontinuity in the amplitude for tunneling from positive to negative vacuum energy, as the positive vacuum energy was sent to zero; analytic and numerical arguments supporting this conjecture were given. Here we show that this conjectu...
