The Mixmaster solution to Einstein field equations was examined by C. Misner in an effort to better understand the dynamics of the early universe. We highlight the importance of the quantum version of this model for the early universe. This quantum version and its semi-classical portraits are yielded through affine and standard coherent state quantizations and more generally affine and Weyl–Heisenberg covariant integral quantizations. The adiabatic and vibronic approximations widely used in molecular physics can be employed to qualitatively study the dynamics of the model on both quantum and semi-classical levels. Moreover, the semi-classical approach with the exact anisotropy potential can be effective in the numerical integration of some solutions. Some promising physical features such as the singularity resolution, smooth bouncing, the excitation of anisotropic oscillations and a substantial amount of post-bounce inflation as the backreaction to the latter are pointed out. Finally, a realistic cosmological scenario based on the quantum mixmaster model, which includes the formation and evolution of local structures is outlined.

AbstractCompact objects are of great interest in astrophysical research. There are active research interests in understanding better various aspects of formation and evolution of these objects. In this paper we addressed some problems related to the compact objects mass limit. We employed Einstein field equations (EFEs) to derive the equation of state (EoS). With the assumption of high densities and low temperature of compact sources, the derived equation of state is reduced to polytropic kind. Studying the polytropic equations we obtained similar physical implications, in agreement to previous works. Using the latest version of Mathematica-11 in our numerical analysis, we also obtained similar results except slight differences in accuracy.

A class of nonstatic inhomogeneous plane-symmetric solutions of Einstein field equations is obtained. The source for these solutions is a viscous fluid with heat flow. The fluid flow is irrotational and it has nonzero expansion, shear and acceleration. All these solutions have a big-bang singularity. The matter-free limit of the solutions is the well-known Kasner vacuum solution. Some physical features of the solutions are briefly discussed.

In this study, we investigate the effects of the one- and two-parameters deformed systems on the Friedmann equations of the Friedmann–Robertson–Walker (FRW) universe by using the entropic gravity approach in the framework of the early universe era. We give simplified forms for the deformed Unruh temperature and Einstein field equations for three different deformed systems. Based on these compact equations, we derive the Friedmann equations with the effective gravitational and cosmological terms.

Assuming that the matter in the background geometry is a free gas and that no phase transitions were occurring in the early Universe, we discuss the thermodynamics of this closed system using classical approaches. We find that essential cosmological quantities, such as the Hubble parameter H, the scaling factor a, and the curvature parameter k, can be derived from this simple model, which on one hand fulfills and entirely obeys the laws of thermodynamics, and on the other hand, its results are compatible with the Friedmann–Robertson–Walker model and the Einstein field equations. Including a finite bulk viscosity coefficient leads to important changes in all these cosmological quantities. Accordingly, our picture about the evolution of the Universe and its astrophysical consequences seems to undergoing a radical revision. We find that k strongly depends on the thermodynamics of background matter. The time scale at which negative curvature might take place depends on the relation between the matter content and the total energy. Using quantum and statistical approaches, we introduce expressions for H and the bulk viscosity coefficient ξ.

AbstractThe dynamics of general relativity is encoded in a set of ten differential equations, the so-called Einstein field equations. It is usually believed that Einstein’s equations represent a physical law describing the coupling of spacetime with material fields. However, just six of these equations actually describe the coupling mechanism: the remaining four represent a set of differential relations known as Bianchi identities. The paper discusses the physical role that the Bianchi identities play in general relativity, and investigates whether these identities—qua part of a physical law—highlight some kind of a posteriori necessity in a Kripkean sense. The inquiry shows that general relativistic physics has an interesting bearing on the debate about the metaphysics of the laws of nature.


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 a recent approach in modeling a radiating relativistic star undergoing gravitational collapse the role of the Weyl stresses was emphasized. It is possible to generate a model which is physically reasonable by approximately solving the junction conditions at the boundary of the star. In this paper we demonstrate that it is possible to solve the Einstein field equations and the junction conditions exactly. This exact solution contains the Friedmann dust solution as a limiting case. We briefly consider the radiative transfer within the framework of extended irreversible thermodynamics and show that relaxational effects significantly alter the temperature profiles.
