Dynamics of Yang-Mills Cosmology Bubbles in Bartnik-McKinnon Spacetimes
Abstract
Description
We investigate the dynamics of a Yang-Mills cosmology (YMC, the FRW type spacetime) bubble in the Bartnik-McKinnon (BK) spacetimes. Because a BK spacetime can be identified to a YMC spacetime with a finite scale factor in the neighborhood of the origin, we can give a natural initial condition for the YMC bubble. The YMC bubble can smoothly emerge from the origin without an initial singularity. Under a certain condition, the bubble develops continuously and finally replaces the entire BK spacetime, the metric of which is the same as the one of the radiation dominated universe. We also discuss why an initial singularity can be avoided in the present case in spite of the singularity theorems by Hawking and Penrose.
