6 Fractional Brane State in the Early Universe

چکیده

In the early Universe matter was crushed to high densities, in a manner similar to that encountered in gravitational collapse to black holes. String theory suggests that the large entropy of black holes can be understood in terms of fractional branes and antibranes. We assume a similar physics for the matter in the early Universe, taking a toroidal compactification and letting branes wrap around the cycles of the torus. We find an equation of state pi = wiρ, for which the dynamics can be solved analytically. For black holes, fractionation can lead to non-local quantum gravity effects across length scales of order the horizon radius; similar effects in the early Universe might change our understanding of Cosmology in basic ways.

The shear dynamics in Bianchi I cosmological model on the brane with a perfect fluid (the equation of state is p = (γ −1)µ) is studied. It is shown that for 1 < γ < 2 the shear parameter has maximum at some moment during a transition period from nonstandard to standard cosmology. An exact formula for the matter density µ in the epoch of maximum shear parameter as a function of the equation of s...

D-branes and Cosmological Singularities

The motion of a test Dq-brane in a Dp-brane background is studied. The induced metric on the test brane is then interpreted as the cosmology of the test brane universe. One is then able to resolve the resulting cosmological singularities. In particular, for a D3-brane in a D5-brane background, one finds a 3+1 dimensional FRW universe with equation of state p = ε. It has been argued that this ma...

Vacuum decay on a brane world

It is widely believed that as the universe cools it undergoes a series of phase transitions. Each of these involves a transition from a metastable ‘‘false vacuum’’ ground state to a stable one, the ‘‘true vacuum’’. In the case of a first order transition, this change is initiated by the nucleation of bubbles of true vacuum. These then expand at a speed asymptotically approaching that of light, ...
