Asymptotic Behaviour of Inhomogeneous String Cosmologies
نویسنده
چکیده
The asymptotic behaviour at late times of inhomogeneous axion-dilaton cosmologies is investigated. The space-times considered here admit two abelian space-like Killing vectors. These space-times evolve towards an anisotropic universe containing gravitational radiation. Furthermore, a peeling-off behaviour of the Weyl tensor and the antisymmetric tensor field strength is found. The relation to the pre-big-bang scenario is briefly discussed.

Asymptotic singular behaviour of inhomogeneous cosmologies in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion theory
We present the study of exact inhomogeneous cosmological solutions to a four-dimensional low energy limit of string theory containing non-minimal interacting electromagnetic, dilaton and axion fields. We analyze Einstein-Rosen solutions of Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion equations and show, by explicitly taken the asymptotic limits, that they have asymptotically velocity-term dominated (AVTD) si...
متن کاملAsymptotic behaviour of a class of inhomogeneous scalar field cosmologies
The asymptotic behaviour of a class of inhomogeneous scalar field cosmologies with a Liouville type of potential is studied. We define a set of new variables for which the phase space of the system of Einstein equations is bounded. This allows us to perform a complete analysis of the evolution of these cosmologies. We also discuss the extension of the cosmic no-hair theorem.
متن کاملScalar Field Inhomogeneous Cosmologies
Some exact solutions for the Einstein eld equations corresponding to inhomogeneous G2 cosmologies with an exponential-potential scalar eld which generalize solutions obtained previously are considered. Several particular cases are studied and the properties related to generalized in ation and asymptotic behaviour of the models are discussed.
متن کاملOn the Evolution of a Large Class of Inhomogeneous Scalar Field Cosmologies
The asymptotic behaviour of a family of inhomogeneous scalar field cosmologies with exponential potential V = Λe is studied. By introducing new variables we can perform an almost complete analysis of the evolution of these cosmologies. Unlike the homogeneous case (Bianchi type solutions), when k2 < 2 the models do not isotropize due to the presence of the inhomogeneities.
متن کاملInhomogeneous String Cosmologies
We present exact inhomogeneous and anisotropic cosmological solutions of low-energy string theory containing dilaton and axion fields. The spacetime metric possesses cylindrical symmetry. The solutions describe ever-expanding universes with an initial curvature singularity and contain known homogeneous solutions as subcases. The asymptotic form of the solution near the initial singularity has a...
