Eternal inflation and the present universe
Eternally inflating universes can contain thermalized regions with different values of the cosmological parameters. In particular, the spectra of density fluctuations should be different, because of the different realizations of quantum fluctuations of the inflaton field. I discuss a general method for calculating probability distributions for such variable parameters and analyze the density fl...
متن کاملInflation and Eternal Inflation
The basic workings of inflationary models are summarized, along with the arguments that strongly suggest that our universe is the product of inflation. The mechanisms that lead to eternal inflation in both new and chaotic models are described. Although the infinity of pocket universes produced by eternal inflation are unobservable, it is argued that eternal inflation has real consequences in te...
متن کامل1 Eternal Universe Karim
In December of 1998, there was published a seminal work using precise measurements of supernovae magnitudes and leading to the conclusion of an apparent accelerated expansion of observed part of Universe. But when we approach the processing of these precise data from a classical ethereal position, without relativistic adjustments, we get another picture, and we believe it is the correct one. It...
متن کاملEternal inflation : The inside story
Motivated by the lessons of black hole complementarity, we develop a causal patch description of eternal inflation. We argue that an observer cannot ascribe a semiclassical geometry to regions outside his horizon, because the large-scale metric is governed by the fluctuations of quantum fields. In order to identify what is within the horizon, it is necessary to understand the late time asymptot...
متن کاملEternal inflation and its implications ‡
I summarize the arguments that strongly suggest that our universe is the product of inflation. The mechanisms that lead to eternal inflation in both new and chaotic models are described. Although the infinity of pocket universes produced by eternal inflation are unobservable, it is argued that eternal inflation has real consequences in terms of the way that predictions are extracted from theore...
