Recently in [P. R. Anderson and E. Mottola, Phys. Rev. D 89 (2014) 104039, arXiv:1310.1963 [gr-qc] and P. R. Anderson and E. Mottola, Phys. Rev. D 89 (2014) 104038, arXiv:1310.0030 [gr-qc].], it was shown that global de Sitter space is unstable even to the massive particle creation with no self-interactions. In this paper, we study the instability by making use of the coordinate-independent plane wave in de Sitter space. Within this formalism, we show that the previous results of instability of de Sitter space due to the particle creation can be generalized to higher-spin fields in a straightforward way. The so-called plane wave is defined globally in de Sitter space and de Sitter invariance is manifest since such modes are deduced from the group theoretical point of view by means of the Casimir operators. In fact, we employ the symmetry of embedding space namely the 4 + 1-dimensional flat space to write the field equations and the solutions can be obtained in terms of the plane wave in embedding space.


Solutions of the Einstein field equations are found for the problem of a sphere of constant density surrounded by matter of different constant density. The solutions are discussed and particular attention paid to the topology of the surrounding matter. The Schwarzschild, de Sitter, and Einstein solutions emerge as particular cases of the general problem.

In this paper, we explore the nature of scalar field potential in [Formula: see text] gravity using a well-motivated reconstruction scheme for flat Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) geometry. The beauty of this scheme lies in the assumption that the Hubble parameter can be expressed in terms of scalar field and vice versa. Firstly, we develop field equations in this gravity and present some general explicit forms of scalar field potential via this technique. In the first case, we take the de Sitter universe model and construct some field potentials by taking different cases for the coupling function. In the second case, we derive some field potentials using the power law model in the presence of different matter sources like barotropic fluid, cosmological constant, and Chaplygin gas for some coupling functions. From graphical analysis, it is concluded that using some specific values of the involved parameters, the reconstructed scalar field potentials are cosmologically viable in both cases.

We propose a new class of gravity-matter theories, describing [Formula: see text] gravity interacting with a nonstandard nonlinear gauge field system and a scalar “dilaton,” formulated in terms of two different non-Riemannian volume-forms (generally covariant integration measure densities) on the underlying space–time manifold, which are independent of the Riemannian metric. The nonlinear gauge field system contains a square-root [Formula: see text] of the standard Maxwell Lagrangian which is known to describe charge confinement in flat space–time. The initial new gravity-matter model is invariant under global Weyl-scale symmetry which undergoes a spontaneous breakdown upon integration of the non-Riemannian volume-form degrees of freedom. In the physical Einstein frame we obtain an effective matter-gauge-field Lagrangian of “k-essence” type with quadratic dependence on the scalar “dilaton” field kinetic term [Formula: see text], with a remarkable effective scalar potential possessing two infinitely large flat regions as well as with nontrivial effective gauge coupling constants running with the “dilaton” [Formula: see text]. Corresponding to each of the two flat regions we find “vacuum” configurations of the following types: (i) [Formula: see text] and a nonzero gauge field vacuum [Formula: see text], which corresponds to a charge confining phase; (ii) [Formula: see text] (“kinetic vacuum”) and ordinary gauge field vacuum [Formula: see text] which supports confinement-free charge dynamics. In one of the flat regions of the effective scalar potential we also find: (iii) [Formula: see text] (“kinetic vacuum”) and a nonzero gauge field vacuum [Formula: see text], which again corresponds to a charge confining phase. In all three cases, the space–time metric is de Sitter or Schwarzschild–de Sitter. Both “kinetic vacuums” (ii) and (iii) can exist only within a finite-volume space region below a de Sitter horizon. Extension to the whole space requires matching the latter with the exterior region with a nonstandard Reissner–Nordström–de Sitter geometry carrying an additional constant radial background electric field. As a result, we obtain two classes of gravitational bag-like configurations with properties, which on one hand partially parallel some of the properties of the solitonic “constituent quark” model and, on the other hand, partially mimic some of the properties of MIT bags in QCD phenomenology.

In the framework of the gauge theory based on the Poincaré symmetry group, the gravitational field is described in terms of the coframe and the local Lorentz connection. Considered as gauge field potentials, they give rise to the corresponding field strength which are naturally identified with the torsion and the curvature on the Riemann–Cartan spacetime. We study the class of quadratic Poincaré gauge gravity models with the most general Yang–Mills type Lagrangian which contains all possible parity-even and parity-odd invariants built from the torsion and the curvature. Exact vacuum solutions of the gravitational field equations are constructed as a certain deformation of de Sitter geometry. They are black holes with nontrivial torsion.

We propose a gravitation theory in 4 dimensional space-time obtained by compacting to 4 dimensions the five dimensional topological Chern-Simons theory with the gauge group SO(1,5) or SO(2,4) – the de Sitter or anti-de Sitter group of 5-dimensional space-time. In the resulting theory, torsion, which is solution of the field equations as in any gravitation theory in the first order formalism, is not necessarily zero. However, a cosmological solution with zero torsion exists, which reproduces the Lambda-CDM cosmological solution of General Relativity. A realistic solution with spherical symmetry is also obtained.
