Chaplygin inflation in loop quantum cosmology

In this paper we discuss the inflationary universe in the context of a Chaplygin gas equation of state within the framework of the effective theory of loop quantum cosmology. Under the slow-roll approximation, we calculate the primordial perturbations for this model. We give the general expressions of the scalar spectral index, its running, and the tensor-to-scalar ratio, etc. For the chaotic inflation with a quadratic potential, using the WMAP 5-year results, we determine the parameters of the Chaplygin inflation model in loop quantum cosmology. The results are consistent with the WMAP observations.

New agegraphic dark energy as a rolling tachyon

Combining the general relativity and the uncertainty relation in quantum mechanics, the energy density of quantum fluctuations of space-time can be viewed as dark energy. The so-called agegraphic dark energy model is just based on this viewpoint, in which the age of the universe is introduced as the length measure. Recently, the new agegraphic dark energy model was proposed, where the dynamical dark energy is measured by the conformal age of the universe. On the other hand, scalar-field dark energy models like tachyon are often regarded as an effective description of some underlying theory of dark energy. In this paper, we show that the new agegraphic dark energy can be described completely by a tachyon scalar-field. We thus reconstruct the potential and the dynamics of the tachyon scalar-field, according to the evolution of the new agegraphic dark energy.

Real Scalar Field Scattering with Polynomial Approximation around Schwarzschild-de Sitter Black-hole

As one of the fitting methods, the polynomial approximation is effective to process sophisticated problem. In this paper, we employ this approach to handle the scattering of scalar field around the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black-hole. The complex relationship between tortoise coordinate and radial coordinate is replaced by the approximate polynomial. The Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger-like equation, the real boundary conditions and the polynomial approximation construct a full Sturm-Liouville type problem. Then this boundary value problem can be solved numerically according to two limiting cases: the first one is the Nariai black-hole whose horizons are close to each other, the second one is when the horizons are widely separated. Compared with previous results (Brevik and Tian), the field near the event horizon and cosmological horizon can have a better description.

Agegraphic dark energy as a quintessence

Recently, a dark energy model characterized by the age of the universe, dubbed ``agegraphic dark energy'', was proposed by Cai. In this paper, a connection between the quintessence scalar-field and the agegraphic dark energy is established, and accordingly, the potential of the agegraphic quintessence field is constructed.

Statefinder diagnosis for the interacting model of holographic dark energy

In this paper, we investigate the holographic dark energy model with interaction between dark energy and dark matter, from the statefinder viewpoint. We plot the trajectories of the interacting holographic dark energy model for different interaction cases as well as for different values of the parameter $c$ in the statefinder-plane. The statefinder diagrams characterize the properties of the holographic dark energy and show the discrimination between the two cases with and without interaction. As a result, we show the influence of the interaction to the evolution of the universe in the statefinder diagrams. Moreover, as a complement to the statefinder diagnosis, we study the interacting holographic dark energy model in the $w-w'$ plane, which can provide us with a dynamical diagnosis.

Holographic dark energy in a cyclic universe

In this paper we study the cosmological evolution of the holographic dark energy in a cyclic universe, generalizing the model of holographic dark energy proposed by Li. The holographic dark energy with $c<1$ can realize a quintom behavior; namely, it evolves from a quintessence-like component to a phantom-like one. The holographic phantom energy density grows rapidly and dominates the late-time expanding phase, helping realize a cyclic universe scenario in which the high energy regime is modified by the effects of quantum gravity, causing a turnaround (and a bounce) of the universe. The dynamical evolution of holographic dark energy in the regimes of low energy and high energy is governed by two differential equations, respectively. It is of importance to link the two regimes for this scenario. We propose a link condition giving rise to a complete picture of holographic evolution of a cyclic universe.

Holographic tachyon model

We propose in this Letter a holographic model of tachyon dark energy. A connection between the tachyon scalar-field and the holographic dark energy is established, and accordingly, the potential of the holographic tachyon field is constructed. We show that the holographic evolution of the universe with $c\geqslant 1$ can be described completely by the resulting tachyon model in a certain way.

Reconstructing generalized ghost condensate model with dynamical dark energy parametrizations and observational datasets

Observations of high-redshift supernovae indicate that the universe is accelerating at the present stage, and we refer to the cause for this cosmic acceleration as ``dark energy''. In particular, the analysis of current data of type Ia supernovae (SNIa), cosmic large-scale structure (LSS), and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy implies that, with some possibility, the equation-of-state parameter of dark energy may cross the cosmological-constant boundary ($w=-1$) during the recent evolution stage. The model of ``quintom'' has been proposed to describe this $w=-1$ crossing behavior for dark energy. As a single-real-scalar-field model of dark energy, the generalized ghost condensate model provides us with a successful mechanism for realizing the quintom-like behavior. In this paper, we reconstruct the generalized ghost condensate model in the light of three forms of parametrization for dynamical dark energy, with the best-fit results of up-to-date observational data.

Statefinder diagnosis in a non-flat universe and the holographic model of dark energy

In this paper, we study the holographic dark energy model in non-flat universe from the statefinder viewpoint. We plot the evolutionary trajectories of the holographic dark energy model for different values of the parameter $c$ as well as for different contributions of spatial curvature, in the statefinder parameter-planes. The statefinder diagrams characterize the properties of the holographic dark energy and show the discrimination between this scenario and other dark energy models. As we show, the contributions of the spatial curvature in the model can be diagnosed out explicitly by the statefinder diagrams. Furthermore, we also investigate the holographic dark energy model in the $w-w'$ plane, which can provide us with a useful dynamical diagnosis complement to the statefinder geometrical diagnosis.

New generalized Chaplygin gas as a scheme for unification of dark energy and dark matter

We propose in this paper a new model for describing the unification of dark energy and dark matter. This new model is a further generalization of the generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG) model, thus dubbed new generalized Chaplygin gas (NGCG) model. The equation of state of the NGCG is given by $p = - \tilde{A}(a)/ρ^α$, where $a$ is the scale factor and $\tilde{A}(a)=-w_XAa^{-3(1+w_X)(1+α)}$. We show that the NGCG model is totally dual to an interacting XCDM parametrization scenario, in which the interaction between dark energy and dark matter is characterized by the constant $α$. We discuss the cosmological consequences led by such an unified dark sectors model. Furthermore, we perform a statefinder analysis on this scenario and show the discrimination between this scenario and other dark energy models. Finally, a combined analysis of the data of Type Ia supernovae, cosmic microwave background, and large scale structure provides a fairly tight constraint on the parameters of the NGCG model.

Boundary term, extended Witten identities and positivity of energy

In terms of two-spinors a chiral formulation of general relativity with the Ashtekar Lagrangian and its Hamiltonian formalism in which the basic dynamic variables are the dyad spinors are presented. The extended Witten identities are derived. A new expression of the Hamiltonian boundary term is obtained. Using this expression and the extended Witten identities the proof of the positive energy theorem is extended to a case including momentum and angular momentum.
