This chapter provides a few examples of representations of the universe on a large scale—a first step in constructing a cosmological model. It first discusses the Copernican principle, which is an approximation/hypothesis about the matter distribution in the observable universe. The chapter then turns to the cosmological principle—a hypothesis about the geometry of the Riemannian spacetime representing the universe, which is assumed to be foliated by 3-spaces labeled by a cosmic time t which are homogeneous and isotropic, that is, ‘maximally symmetric’. After a discussion on maximally symmetric space, this chapter considers spacetimes with homogenous and isotropic sections. Finally, this chapter discusses Milne and de Sitter spacetimes.

The cosmological dynamics of a non-locally corrected gravity theory, involving a power of the inverse d’Alembertian, is investigated. Casting the dynamical equations into local form, the fixed points of the models are derived, as well as corresponding de Sitter and power-law solutions. Necessary and sufficient conditions on the model parameters for the existence of de Sitter solutions are obtained. The possible existence of power-law solutions is investigated, and it is proven that models with de Sitter solutions have no power-law solutions. A model is found, which allows to describe the matter-dominated phase of the Universe evolution.

Measurements of the distances to SNe Ia have produced strong evidence that the expansion of the Universe is really accelarating, implying the existence of a nearly uniform component of dark energy with the simplest explanation as a cosmological constant. In this paper a small changing cosmological term is proposed, which is a function of a slow-rolling scalar field, by which the de Sitter primordial black holes' properties, for both charged and uncharged cases, are carefully examined and the relationship between the black hole formation and the energy transfer of the inflaton is eluciated. The criterion for primordial black hole formation is given.

There has recently been a revival of interest in anti-de-Sitter space (AdS), brought about by the conjectured duality between physics in the bulk of AdS and a conformal field theory on the boundary. Since the whole subject of branes, singletons and superconformal field theories on the AdS boundary was an active area of research about ten years ago, we begin with a historical review, including the idea of the "membrane at the end of the universe." We then compare the old and new approaches and discuss some new results on AdS 5 × S5 and AdS 3 × S3.

In this work, we show the importance of introducing the quantum tomography formalism to analyze the properties of wave functions in quantum cosmology. In particular, we examine the initial conditions of the universe proposed by various authors in the context of de Sitter’s cosmology studying their classical limit and comparing it with the classical tomogram obtained from the Hamiltonian constraint in General Relativity. This comparison gives us the opportunity to find under which conditions there is a transition from the quantum universe to the classical one. A relevant result is that in these models the decay of the cosmological constant is a sufficient condition for this transition.

Extract Information

Quantum and classical physical states are represented in a unified way when they aredescribed by symplectic tomography. Therefore this representation allows us to study directly the necessary conditions for a classical universe to emerge from a quantum state. In a previous work on the de Sitter universe this was done by comparing the classical limit of the quantum tomograms with those resulting from the classical cosmological equations. In this paper, we first review these results and extend them to all the de Sitter models. We show further that these tomograms can be obtained directly from transposing the Wheeler–De Witt equation to the tomographic variables. Subsequently, because the classic limits of the quantum tomograms are identified with their asymptotic expressions, we find the necessary conditions to extend the previous results by taking the tomograms of the WKB solutions of the Wheeler–DeWitt equation with an any potential. Furthermore, in the previous works, we found that the de Sitter models undergo the quantum-to-classical transition when the cosmological constant decays to its present value, we discuss at the end how far we can extend this result to more general models. In the conclusions, after discussing any improvements and developments of the results of this work, we sketch a phenomenological approach from which to extract information about the initial states of the universe.

In this study, we examine two models of the scalar field, that is, a normal scalar field and a tachyon scalar field in [Formula: see text] gravity to describe cosmic acceleration of the universe, where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are Ricci curvature scalar, trace of energy–momentum tensor and kinetic energy of scalar field [Formula: see text], respectively. Using the minimal-coupling Lagrangian [Formula: see text], for both the scalar models we obtain a viable cosmological system, where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are real constants. While a normal scalar field gives a system describing expansion from the deceleration to the late-time acceleration, tachyon field together with [Formula: see text] in the system produces a quintessential expansion which is very close to de Sitter point, where we find a new condition [Formula: see text] for inflation.

At the last time the concept of the curved space-time as the some medium with stress tensor σαβon the right part of Einstein equation is extensively studied in the frame of the Sakharov - Wheeler metric elasticity(Sakharov (1967), Wheeler (1970)). The physical cosmology pre- dicts a different phase transitions (Linde (1990), Guth (1991)). In the frame of Relativistic Theory of Finite Deformations (RTFD) (Gusev (1986)) the transition from the initial stateof the Universe (Minkowskian's vacuum, quasi-vacuum(Gliner (1965), Zel'dovich (1968)) to the final stateof the Universe(Friedmann space, de Sitter space) has the form of phase transition(Gusev (1989) which is connected with different space-time symmetry of the initial and final states of Universe(from the point of view of isometric groupGnof space). In the RTFD (Gusev (1983), Gusev (1989)) the space-time is described by deformation tensorof the three-dimensional surfaces, and the Einstein's equations are viewed as the constitutive relations between the deformations ∊αβand stresses σαβ. The vacuum state of Universe have the visible zero physical characteristics and one is unsteady relatively quantum and topological deformations (Gunzig & Nardone (1989), Guth (1991)). Deformations of vacuum state, identifying with empty Mikowskian's space are described the deformations tensor ∊αβ, wherethe metrical tensor of deformation state of 3-geometry on the hypersurface, which is ortogonaled to the four-velocityis the 3 -geometry of initial state,is a projection tensor.
