Beyond linearized cosmology
نویسنده
چکیده
We comment on the necessity of a unified approximative scheme within relativistic cosmology which would allow us to classify different cosmological models in a systematic way. We also report on recent progresses in formulating a cosmological post-Newtonian approximation and the problems related to such a scheme.

Weak Classical - Gravity Source in Standpoint Cosmology
Guided by a linearized approximation to Einstein theory, an interim prescription for " weak source of gravity "-in " particle " energy-momentum distributed along standpoint light cone-is formulated for (classical) standpoint cosmology.
متن کاملThe Impact of Quantum Cosmology on Quantum Field Theory
The basic problem of quantum cosmology is the definition of the quantum state of the universe, with appropriate boundary conditions on Riemannian three-geometries. This paper describes recent progress in the corresponding analysis of quantum amplitudes for Euclidean Maxwell theory and linearized gravity. Within the framework of FaddeevPopov formalism and zeta-function regularization, various ch...
متن کاملAmplification of Vacuum Fluctuations in String Cosmology Backgrounds
Inflationary string cosmology backgrounds can amplify perturbations in a more efficient way than conventional inflationary backgrounds, because the perturbation amplitude may grow instead of being constant outside the horizon. If not gauged away, the growing mode can limit the range of validity of a linearized description of perturbations. Even in the restricted linear range, however, this enha...
متن کاملAsymptotics of linearized cosmological perturbations
In cosmology an important role is played by homogeneous and isotropic solutions of the Einstein-Euler equations and linearized perturbations of these. This paper proves results on the asymptotic behaviour of scalar perturbations both in the approach to the initial singularity of the background model and at late times. The main equation of interest is a linear hyperbolic equation whose coefficie...
متن کاملDark Energy: Beyond General Relativity?
The late-time accelerated expansion of the universe is a major challenge for cosmology. It may well be that a solution to this problem will require a theory of gravitation beyond General Relativity. It is emphasized that precision cosmology will strongly constrain the possibilities by using observational data probing the background as well as the inhomogeneities.
