We study the quantum remnant of a scalar field protected by the uncertainty principle. The quantum remnant that survived the later stage of evolution of the universe may provide dark energy and dark matter depending on the potential. Though the quantum remnant shares some useful property of complex scalar field (spintessence) dark energy model, quantum fluctuations are still unstable to the linear perturbations for V ~ ϕq with q < 1 as in the spintessence model.

We present a whole frame for the cosmic strings, inflation and dark energy with the complex scalar field which can be regarded as the order parameter of our universe. One can find that the comic strings emerge in the zeros of the complex scalar field in the early universe. And with the evolution of complex scalar field, inflation and dark energy can be understood in this frame.

The nature of the cosmological dark matter (DM) remains elusive. Recent studies have advocated the possibility that DM could be composed of ultra-light, self-interacting bosons, forming a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) in the very early Universe. We consider models which are charged under a global U(1)-symmetry such that the DM number is conserved. It can then be described as a classical complex scalar field which evolves in an expanding Universe. We present a brief review on the bounds on the model parameters from cosmological and galactic observations, along with the properties of galactic halos which result from such a DM candidate.

Abstract We present the general form of the renormalizable four-point interactions of a complex scalar field furnishing an irreducible representation of SU(2), and derive a set of algebraic identities that facilitates the calculation of higher-order radiative corrections. As an application, we calculate the two-loop beta function for the SM extended by a scalar multiplet, and provide the result explicitly in terms of the group invariants. Our results include the evolution of the Higgs-portal couplings, as well as scalar “minimal dark matter”. We present numerical results for the two-loop evolution of the various couplings.

AbstractWhen the Brans-Dicke theory is formulated in terms of the Jordan scalar field φ, the amount of dark energy is related to the mass of this field. We investigate a solution which is relevant to the late universe. We show that if φ is taken to be a complex scalar field, then an exact solution to the vacuum equations requires that the Friedmann equation possesses both a constant term and one which is proportional to the inverse sixth power of the scale factor. Possible interpretations and phenomenological implications of this result are discussed.

In this work, we have considered a noncanonical complex scalar field named hessence to play the role of quintom in anisotropic universe (particularly in the Bianchi I model) as a new approach to look into the unknown mysterious world of dark energy. We have solved the field equations by considering the power-law form of scale factors and found the potential function in terms of ϕ with some restrictions. We also show here that hessence can avoid the Q-ball formation in anisotropic universe.

We study some problems arising from the introduction of a complex scalar field in cosmology, modeling its possible behaviors in both the inflationary and dark energy stages of the universe. Such examples contribute to show that, while the complex nature of the scalar field can be indeed important during inflation, it loses its meaning in the later dark-energy dominated era of cosmology, when the phase of the complex field is practically constant, and there is indeed a transition from complex to real scalar field. In our considerations, the Noether symmetry approach turns out to be a useful tool once again. We arrive eventually at a potential containing the sixth and fourth powers of the scalar field, and the resulting semiclassical quantum cosmology is studied to gain a better understanding of the inflationary stage.
