In the middle of last century, Bondi and his coworkers proposed an outgoing boundary condition for the Einstein equations. Recently, more and more observations imply that the Einstein equations should include a nonzero cosmological constant. A spacetime with a positive cosmological constant approaches to a de Sitter space asymptotically. Bondi's original boundary condition is not valid for these asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes. But the traditional conformally flat boundary condition excludes the gravitational radiation for the asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes. In this work, a new Bondi-type outgoing boundary condition based on Bondi–Sachs coordinates is considered. With this new boundary condition, the gravitational wave behavior for the asymptotically de Sitter spacetime is similar to the one for the asymptotically Minkowski spacetime. The traditional conformally flat boundary condition falls into a special subclass of the new boundary condition.

We discuss properties of a three-brane in an asymptotic five-dimensional de Sitter spacetime. It is found that a Minkowski solution can be obtained without fine-tuning. In the model, the tiny observed positive cosmological constant is interpreted as a curvature of five-dimensional manifold, but the Minkowski spacetime, where we live, is a natural three-brane perpendicular to the fifth coordinate axis.

Explicit Expressions

Gravitational radiation plays an important role in astrophysics. Based on the fact that our universe is expanding, the gravitational radiation when a positive cosmological constant is presented has been studied along with two different ways recently, one is the Bondi–Sachs (BS) framework in which the result is shown by BS quantities in the asymptotic null structure, the other is the perturbation approach in which the result is presented by the quadrupoles of source. Therefore, it is worth to interpret the quantities in asymptotic null structure in terms of the information of the source. In this paper, we investigate this problem and find the explicit expressions of BS quantities in terms of the quadrupoles of source in asymptotically de Sitter spacetime. We also estimate how far away the source is, the cosmological constant may affect the detection of the gravitational wave.

Expansion Of The Universe

Recent observations in cosmology indicate an accelerating expansion of the Universe postulated to arise from some form of dark energy, the paradigm being positive cosmological constant. De Sitter spacetime is the well-known isotropic solution to the Einstein equations with cosmological constant. However, as discussed here, it is not the most general, locally isotropic solution. One can construct an infinite family of such solutions, designer de Sitter spacetimes, which are everywhere locally isometric to a region of de Sitter spacetime. However, the global dynamics of these designer cosmologies is very different than that of de Sitter spacetime itself. The construction and dynamics of these designer de Sitter spacetimes is detailed along with some comments about their implications for the structure of our Universe.PACS Nos.: 04.20.–q, 04.20.Ex, 04.20.Gz, 98.80.–k

Black Hole Solutions

Numerical arguments are presented for the existence of regular and black hole solutions of the Einstein–Skyrme equations with a positive cosmological constant. These classical configurations approach asymptotically the de Sitter spacetime. The main properties of the solutions and the differences with respect to the asymptotically flat ones are discussed. In particular our results suggest that, for a positive cosmological constant, the mass evaluated as timelike infinity in infinite. Special emphasis is set to de Sitter black holes Skyrmions which display two horizons.

Our aim is to study five-dimensional spherically symmetric anisotropic collapse with a positive cosmological constant (PCC). For this purpose, five-dimensional spherically symmetric and Schwarzschild–de Sitter metrics are chosen in the interior and exterior regions respectively. A set of junction conditions is derived for the smooth matching of interior and exterior spacetimes. The apparent horizon is calculated and its physical significance is studied. It comes out that the whole collapsing process is influenced by the cosmological constant. The collapsing process under the influence of cosmological constant slows down and black hole size also reduced.

We present a regular spherically symmetric cosmological model of the Lemaitre class distinguished by the holographic principle as the thermodynamically stable end-point of quantum evaporation of the cosmological horizon. A source term in the Einstein equations connects smoothly two de Sitter vacua with different values of cosmological constant and corresponds to anisotropic vacuum dark fluid defined by symmetry of its stress-energy tensor which is invariant under the radial boosts. Global structure of space-time is the same as for the de Sitter space-time. Cosmological evolution goes from a big initial value of the cosmological constant towards its presently observed value.

Effective Cosmological Constant

The recent OPERA experiment of superluminal neutrinos has deep consequences in cosmology. In cosmology a fundamental constant is the cosmological constant. From observations one can estimate the effective cosmological constant Λ eff which is the sum of the quantum zero point energy Λ dark energy and the geometric cosmological constant Λ. The OPERA experiment can be applied to determine the geometric cosmological constant Λ. It is the first study to distinguish the contributions of Λ and Λ dark energy from each other by experiment. The determination is based on an explanation of the OPERA experiment in the framework of Special Relativity with de Sitter spacetime symmetry.

Spin Representations

We propose a framework for the free field construction of algebras of local observables which uses as an input the Bisognano–Wichmann relations and a representation of the Poincaré group on the one-particle Hilbert space. The abstract real Hilbert subspace version of the Tomita–Takesaki theory enables us to bypass some limitations of the Wigner formalism by introducing an intrinsic spacetime localization. Our approach works also for continuous spin representations to which we associate a net of von Neumann algebras on spacelike cones with the Reeh–Schlieder property. The positivity of the energy in the representation turns out to be equivalent to the isotony of the net, in the spirit of Borchers theorem. Our procedure extends to other spacetimes homogeneous under a group of geometric transformations as in the case of conformal symmetries and of de Sitter spacetime.
