Open inflationary universes in the induced gravity theory
The induced gravity theory is a variant of Jordan–Brans–Dicke theory where the ‘dilaton’ field possesses a potential. It has the unusual feature that in the presence of a false vacuum there is a stable static solution with the dilaton field displaced from the minimum of its potential, giving perfect de Sitter expansion. We demonstrate how this solution can be used to implement the open inflatio...
متن کاملChaos in Anisotropic Pre-Inflationary Universes
We study the dynamics of anisotropic Bianchi type-IX models with matter and cosmological constant. The models can be thought as describing the role of anisotropy in the early stages of inflation, where the cosmological constant Λ plays the role of the vacuum energy of the inflaton field. The concurrence of the cosmological constant and anisotropy are sufficient to produce a chaotic dynamics in ...
متن کاملEternal Inflation With Non-Inflationary Pocket Universes
Eternal inflation produces pocket universes with all physically allowed vacua and histories. Some of these pocket universes might contain a phase of slow-roll inflation, some might undergo cycles of cosmological evolution and some might look like the galilean genesis or other “emergent” universe scenarios. Which one of these types of universe we are most likely to inhabit depends on the measure...
متن کاملStable and unstable circular strings in inflationary universes.
It was shown by Garriga and Vilenkin that the circular shape of nucleated cosmic strings, of zero loop-energy in de Sitter space, is stable in the sense that the ratio of the mean fluctuation amplitude to the loop radius is constant. This result can be generalized to all expanding strings (of non-zero loop-energy) in de Sitter space. In other curved spacetimes the situation, however, may be dif...
متن کاملMaximal Fermi charts and geometry of inflationary universes
A proof is given that the maximal Fermi coordinate chart for any comoving observer in a broad class of Robertson-Walker spacetimes consists of all events within the cosmological event horizon, if there is one, or is otherwise global. Exact formulas for the metric coefficients in Fermi coordinates are derived. Sharp universal upper bounds for the proper radii of leaves of the foliation by Fermi ...
