Quantifying the potential and flux landscapes for nonequilibrium multiverse, a new scenario for time arrow

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We propose a new scenario of nonequilibirum multiverse. We quantified the potential landscape and the flux landscape for the multiverse. The potential landscape quantifies the weight of each universe. When the terminal vacuum with zero (flat) or negative

Islands in multiverse models

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We consider multiverse models in two-dimensional linear dilaton-gravity theories as toy models of false vacuum eternal inflation. Coupling conformal matter we calculate the Von Neumann entropy of subregions. When these are sufficiently large we find that

Quantum Cosmology with Third Quantisation

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
We reviewed the canonical quantisation of the geometry of the spacetime in the cases of a simply and a non-simply connected manifold. In the former, we analysed the information contained in the solutions of the Wheeler–DeWitt equation and showed their ...
