Stable Isotropic Cosmological Singularities in Quadratic Gravity
We show that, in quadratic lagrangian theories of gravity, isotropic cosmological singularities are stable to the presence of small scalar, vector and tensor inhomogeneities. Unlike in general relativity, a particular exact isotropic solution is shown to be the stable attractor on approach to the initial cosmological singularity. This solution is also known to act as an attractor in Bianchi uni...
متن کاملCosmological singularities and modified theories of gravity
We consider perturbative modifications of the Friedmann equations in terms of energy density corresponding to modified theories of gravity proposed as an alternative route to comply with the observed accelerated expansion of the universe. Assuming that the present matter content of the universe is a pressureless fluid, the possible singularities that may arise as the final state of the universe...
متن کاملUniversal approach to cosmological singularities in two-dimensional dilaton gravity.
We show that in a large class of two dimensional models with conformal matter fields, the semiclassical cosmological solutions have a weak coupling singularity if the classical matter content is below a certain threshold. This threshold and the approach to the singularity are model-independent. When the matter fields are not conformally invariant, the singularity persists if the quantum state i...
متن کاملEvolution of cosmological constant in effective gravity
In contrast to the phenomenon of nullification of the cosmological constant in the equilibrium vacuum, which is the general property of any quantum vacuum, there are many options in modifying the Einstein equation to allow the cosmological constant to evolve in a non-equilibrium vacuum. An attempt is made to extend the Einstein equation in the direction suggested by the condensed-matter analogy...
متن کاملCosmological Singularities and a Conjectured Gravity/coset Correspondence
We review the recently discovered connection between the Belinsky-Khalatnikov-Lifshitz-like “chaotic” structure of generic cosmological singularities in eleven-dimensional supergravity and the “last” hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra E10. This intriguing connection suggests the existence of a hidden “correspondence” between supergravity (or even M-theory) and null geodesic motion on the infinite-dim...
