Non-Abelian T-duality in Pre-Big-Bang Cosmology
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the impact of non-Abelian T-duality transformations on a string based cosmological model. The implementation of the pre-big-bang scenario is investigated. We found a region of the dual phase where such a picture is possible. e-mail: [email protected] e-mail: [email protected] CNRS UPRES-A 6083

Classical Inhomogeneities in String Cosmology
We generalize previous work on inhomogeneous pre-big bang cosmology by including the effect of non-trivial moduli and antisymmetric-tensor/axion fields. The general quasi-homogeneous asymptotic solution—as one approaches the big bang singularity from perturbative initial data—is given and its range of validity is discussed, allowing us to give a general quantitative estimate of the amount of in...
متن کاملSelf-T-dual Brane Cosmology
We show how T-duality can be implemented with brane cosmology. As a result, we obtain a smooth bouncing cosmology with features similar to the ones of the pre-Big Bang scenario. Also, by allowing T-duality transformations along the time-like direction, we find a static solution that displays an interesting self tuning property. Based on a talk given at the XI Marcel Grossmann Meeting, Berlin 23...

Departamento de F́ısica Teórica Instituto de F́ısica Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Apartado Postal 20-364 01000 México, D.F Abstract : The beautiful scenario of pre-big-bang cosmology is appealling not only because it is more or less derived from string theory, but also because it separates clearly the problem of the initial conditions for the universe from that of high curvatures. Rece...
متن کاملPre - Big - Bang In String Cosmology
The duality-type symmetries of string cosmology naturally lead us to expect a pre-big-bang phase of accelerated evolution as the dual counterpart of the decelerating expansion era of standard cosmology. Several properties of this scenario are discussed, including the possibility that it avoids the initial singularity and that it provides a large amount of inflation. We also discuss how possible...
متن کاملA Solution to the Graceful Exit Problem in Pre-Big Bang Cosmology
We examine the string cosmology equations with a dilaton potential in the context of the PreBig Bang Scenario with the desired scale factor duality, and give a generic algorithm for obtaining solutions with appropriate evolutionary properties. This enables us to find pre-big bang type solutions with suitable dilaton behaviour that are regular at t = 0, thereby solving the graceful exit problem....
