Additional Space

The most popular theories of everything are various versions of the superstring theory. The theories require existence of additional space dimensions, vibrations of which create the material particles in [Formula: see text] space. The additional space dimensions are understood as being currently smaller than the Planck Length and due to this not directly observable. We search for multidimensional models of the Universe (one time dimension; three isotropic, flat external dimensions, and [Formula: see text]-internal dimensions), which satisfy the multidimensional Einstein equations and which started from the same radius of all of the internal and external dimensions, with an anisotropic energy–momentum tensor. Analytical solution of [Formula: see text]-dimensional Einstein equation in a reparameterized time is reminded and discussed. The energy–momentum tensor is solely responsible for expansion of the external dimensions and shrinking of the internal ones; and to obtain this behavior of the space the tensor needs to fulfill some conditions i.e. the energy–momentum tensor cannot include only radiation, vacuum and baryonic matter. For the behavior of the physical space consistent with the one observed in our Universe, the dark energy and/or dark matter have to exist.

Static Space

The flux integral for axisymmetric polar perturbations of static vacuum space-times, derived in an earlier paper directly from the relevant linearized Einstein equations, is rederived with the aid of the Einstein pseudo-tensor by a simple algorism. A similar earlier effort with the aid of the Landau–Lifshitz pseudo-tensor failed. The success with the Einstein pseudo-tensor is due to its special distinguishing feature that its second variation retains its divergence-free property provided only the equations governing the static space-time and its linear perturbations are satisfied. When one seeks the corresponding flux integral for Einstein‒Maxwell space-times, the common procedure of including, together with the pseudo-tensor, the energy‒momentum tensor of the prevailing electromagnetic field fails. But, a prescription due to R. Sorkin, of including instead a suitably defined ‘Noether operator’, succeeds.

The Right

The time-dependent cosmological term arises from the energy-momentum tensor calculated in a state different from the ground state. We discuss the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor on the right hand side of Einstein equations in various (approximate) quantum pure as well as mixed states. We apply the classical slow-roll field evolution as well as the Starobinsky and warm inflation stochastic equations in order to calculate the expectation value. We show that, in the state concentrated at the local maximum of the double-well potential, the expectation value is decreasing exponentially. We confirm the descent of the expectation value in the stochastic inflation model. We calculate the cosmological constant Λ at large time as the expectation value of the energy density with respect to the stationary probability distribution. We show that Λ ≃ γ 4 3 where γ is the thermal dissipation rate.

Noether Current

We study various definitions of the gravitational field energy based on the usage of isometric embeddings in the Regge–Teitelboim approach. For the embedding theory, we consider the coordinate translations on the surface as well as the coordinate translations in the flat bulk. In the latter case, the independent definition of gravitational energy–momentum tensor appears as a Noether current corresponding to global inner symmetry. In the field-theoretic form of this approach (splitting theory), we consider Noether procedure and the alternative method of energy–momentum tensor defining by varying the action of the theory with respect to flat bulk metric. As a result, we obtain energy definition in field-theoretic form of embedding theory which, among the other features, gives a nontrivial result for the solutions of embedding theory which are also solutions of Einstein equations. The question of energy localization is also discussed.

The One

Within the scope of Bianchi type-IX cosmological model we have studied the role of spinor field in the evolution of the Universe. It is found that unlike the diagonal Bianchi models in this case the components of energy–momentum tensor of spinor field along the principal axis are not the same (i.e., [Formula: see text]), even in the absence of spinor field nonlinearity. The presence of nontrivial non-diagonal components of energy–momentum tensor of the spinor field imposes severe restrictions both on geometry of space–time and on the spinor field itself. As a result the space–time turns out to be either locally rotationally symmetric or isotropic. In this paper we considered the Bianchi type-IX space–time both for a trivial b, that corresponds to standard Bianchi type-IX and the one with a non-trivial b. It was found that a positive self-coupling constant λ1 gives rise to an oscillatory mode of expansion, while a trivial λ1 leads to rapid expansion at the early stage of evolution.

The renormalization group is used to sum the leading-log (LL) contributions to the effective action for a large constant external gauge field in terms of the one-loop renormalization group (RG) function β, the next-to-leading-log (NLL) contributions in terms of the two-loop RG function, etc. The log-independent pieces are not determined by the RG equation, but can be fixed by considering the anomaly in the trace of the energy-momentum tensor. Similar considerations can be applied to the effective potential V for a scalar field [Formula: see text]; here the log-independent pieces are fixed by the condition [Formula: see text].

The One

The method of analytic regularization in which the number of dimensions is not generalized is shown to preserve the supersymmetry identity relating the anomalies of the supersymmetry current, the trace of the energy–momentum tensor, and the divergence of the axial current at the one-loop level. Explicit counterterms needed for the identity to hold are constructed. The method preserves Dirac and all other tensor algebras in D = 4 space and renders the computation of anomalies straightforward and simple.

Two problems related to dark matter are considered in the context of a braneworld model in which the confinement of gauge fields on the brane is achieved by invoking a confining potential. First, we show that the virial mass discrepancy can be addressed if the conserved geometrical term appearing in this model is considered as an energy–momentum tensor of an unknown type of matter, the so-called X-matter whose equation of state (EoS) is also obtained. Second, the galaxy rotation curves are explained by assuming an anisotropic energy–momentum tensor for the X-matter.
