Cyclic multiverses [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016
Using the idea of regularisation of singularities due to the variability of the fundamental constants in cosmology we study the cyclic universe models. We find two models of oscillating and non-singular mass density and pressure ("non-singular" bounce) regularised by varying gravitational constant $G$ despite the scale factor evolution is oscillating ...

A graceful multiversal link of particle physics to cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper we work out a multiverse scenario whose physical characteristics enable us to advance the following the conjecture that whereas the physics of particles and fields is confined to live in the realm of the whole multiverse formed by finite ...

Conceptual Challenges on the Road to the Multiverse

open access: yesUniverse, 2019
The current debate about a possible change of paradigm from a single universe to a multiverse scenario could have deep implications on our view of cosmology and of science in general. These implications therefore deserve to be analyzed from a fundamental

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 ...

Complementarity in the multiverse [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2009
In the multiverse, as in AdS, light-cones relate bulk points to boundary scales. This holographic UV-IR connection defines a preferred global time cut-off that regulates the divergences of eternal inflation. An entirely different cut-off, the causal patch, arises in the holographic description of black holes.

Is the Quilted Multiverse Consistent with a Thermodynamic Arrow of Time?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2018
Theoretical achievements, as well as much controversy, surround multiverse theory. Various types of multiverses, with an increasing amount of complexity, were suggested and thoroughly discussed in literature by now.

On the set-generic multiverse

open access: green, 2016
The forcing method is a powerful tool to prove the consistency of set-theoretic assertions relative to the consistency of the axioms of set theory. Laver's theorem and Bukovsk 's theorem assert that set-generic extensions of a given ground model constitute a quite reasonable and sufficiently general class of standard models of set-theory.

Mythology, Weltanschauung, symbolic universe and states of consciousness

open access: yesHTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2016
This article investigates whether different religious (mythological) worldviews can be described as alternative and altered states of consciousness (ASCs).
