Holographic principle and string cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity, 1999
String cosmology is revisited from cosmological viewpoint of holographic principle put forward by `t Hooft, and by Fischler and Susskind. It is shown that the holography requires existence of a `graceful exit' mechanism, which renders the Universe nonsingular by connecting pre- and post-big bang phases smoothly.

EQUIVALENCE PRINCIPLE IN COSMOLOGY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We analyse the Einstein equivalence principle (EEP) for a Hubble observer in Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker spacetime. We show that the affine structure of light cone in the FLRW spacetime should be treated locally in terms of the optical metric which is not reduced to the Minkowski metric due to the non-uniform parametrization of the local ...

Comments on the cosmological constant in generalized uncertainty models

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
The existence of a small, non-zero cosmological constant is one of the major puzzles in fundamental physics. Naively, quantum field theory arguments would imply a cosmological constant which is up to 10,120 times larger than the observed one.

A Dynamic Dark Information Energy Consistent with Planck Data

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
The 2013 cosmology results from the European Space Agency Planck spacecraft provide new limits to the dark energy equation of state parameter. Here we show that Holographic Dark Information Energy (HDIE), a dynamic dark energy model, achieves an optimal ...

The Cosmological Principle

open access: yes, 2021
This Bachelor of Science thesis details the mathematical foundations of cosmology. It reviews the fundamental concepts of differential and Riemannian geometry, including manifolds, one-forms, tensors, connections, and the Levi-Civita connection. The thesis then applies these concepts to cosmology by examining spacetime manifolds, the Cosmological ...

Anthropic reasoning in multiverse cosmology and string theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Anthropic arguments in multiverse cosmology and string theory rely on the weak anthropic principle (WAP). We show that the principle, though ultimately a tautology, is nevertheless ambiguous.

The principle of least action and clustering in cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1994
A scheme is developed which enables one to trace backwards in time the cosmic density and velocity fields, and to determine accurately the current-epoch velocity field from the current-epoch density field, or vice versa. The scheme implements the idea of Giavalisco \etal\ (1993) that the principle of least action should be used to formulate ...

Cosmological hyperfluids, torsion and non-metricity

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020
We develop a novel model for cosmological hyperfluids, that is fluids with intrinsic hypermomentum that induce spacetime torsion and non-metricity. Imposing the cosmological principle to metric-affine spaces, we present the most general covariant form of

Creation of wormholes during the cosmological bounce

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
In this work we demonstrate that wormholes can in principle be naturally created during the cosmological bounce without the need for the exotic matter or any kind of additional modifications of the gravitational sector, apart from the one enabling the ...

Infrared (in)sensitivity of relativistic effects in cosmological observable statistics

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2023
The relativistic effects in cosmological observables contain critical information about the initial conditions and gravity on large scales. Compared to the matter density fluctuation, some of these relativistic contributions scale with negative powers of
