چکیده
Abstract. Electrodynamics for self-interacting scalar fields in spatially flat FriedmannRobertson-Walker space-times is studied. The corresponding one-loop field equation for the expectation value of the complex scalar field in the conformal vacuum is derived. For exponentially expanding universes, the equations for the Bogoliubov coefficients describing the coupling of the scalar field to gravity are solved numerically. They yield a non-local correction to the Coleman-Weinberg effective potential which does not modify the pattern of minima found in static de Sitter space. Such a correction contains a dissipative term which, accounting for the decay of the classical configuration in scalar field quanta, may be relevant for the reheating stage. The physical meaning of the non-local term in the semiclassical field equation is investigated by evaluating this contribution for various background field configurations.

M-theory resolution of four-dimensional cosmological singularities via U-duality
We consider cosmological solutions of string and M-theory compactified to four dimensions by giving a general prescription to construct four-dimensional modular cosmologies with two commuting Killing vectors from vacuum solutions. By lifting these solutions to higher dimensions we analyze the existence of cosmological singularities and find that, in the case of non-closed Friedmann-Robertson-Wa...
متن کاملOn the Dual Interpretation of Zero-curvature Friedmann-robertson-walker Models
Two possible interpretations of FRW cosmologies (perfect fluid or dissipative fluid) are considered as consecutive phases of the system. Necessary conditions are found, for the transition from perfect fluid to dissipative regime to occur, bringing out the conspicuous role played by a particular state of the system (the “critical point”).

Distance–redshift relations are given in terms of associated Legendre functions for partially filled beam observations in spatially flat Friedmann-Lemaˆıtre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmologies. These models are dynamically pressure-free, flat FLRW on large scales but, due to mass inhomogeneities, differ in their optical properties. The partially filled beam area-redshift equation is a Lame ′ eq...
متن کاملFlat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmologies with adiabatic matter creation: kinematic tests
We investigate observational consequences of a cosmological scenario driven by adiabatic matter creation. Exact expressions for the lookback time, age of the universe, luminosity distance, angular diameter, and galaxy number counts versus redshift are derived and their meaning discussed in detail. The expressions of the conventional FRW models are significantly modified and provide a powerful m...
