Exact self-consistent plane-symmetric solutions of the spinor-field equation with a nonlinear term dependent on the invariant P2

Exact self-consistent plane-symmetric solutions of the spinor-field equation with zero mass parameter and a nonlinear term that is an arbitrary function of the invariant , are obtained in gravitation theory. An equation with power-law nonlinearity in which the nonlinear term in the spinor-field Lagrangian has the form L_N=λP²ⁿ, where λ is the nonlinearity parameter and n=const, is investigated in detail. It is shown that λ=−Λ²<0, n>1, the original system of Einstein and nonlinear spinor-field equations has regular solutions with a localized spinor-field energy density. Here the soliton-like configuration of the fields possesses a negative energy. Exact solutions are also obtained for the above spinor-field equation in flat spacetime, and it is demonstrated that there are no soliton-like solutions in that case. Thus it is established that the proper gravitational field plays a decisive, controlling role in the formation of soliton-type solutions of the above nonlinear spinor-field equation.

Exact self-consistent plane-symmetric solutions of the spinor-field equation with a nonlinear term that depends on theS 2−P 2 invariant

Exact plane-symmetric solutions of the spinor-field equation with zero mass parameter and nonlinear term that depends arbitrarily on the S²−P² invariant are derived with consideration of an intrinsic gravitational field. The existence of regular solutions with localized energy density among the solutions obtained is investigated. Equations with powerlaw and polynomial nonlinearity types are examined in detail. For the power-law nonlinearity, when the nonlinear term entering into the Lagrangian has the form L_N=γIⁿ, where γ is the nonlinearity parameter and n=const, it is shown that the initial system of Einstein and spinor-field equations has regular solutions with localized energy density only under the conditions λ=−Λ² < 0, n > 1. In this case, the examined field configuration posesses a negative energy. In the case of polynomial nonlinearity, regular solutions with localized energy density T ₀ ⁰ (x), positive energy (upon integration over y and z between finite limits), and an everywhere regular metric that transforms into a two-dimensional space-time metric at spatial infinity are obtained. It is shown that the initial nonlinear spinor-field equations in two-dimensional space-time have no solutions with localized energy density. Thus, it is established that the intrinsic gravitational field plays a regularizing role in the frmation of regular localized solutions to the examined nonlinear spinor-field equations.

Exact self-consistent plane-symmetric solutions of the equations of two interacting fields (spinor field and scalar field)

A spinor field interacting with a zero-mass neutral scalar field is considered for the case of the simplest type of direct interaction, where the interaction Lagrangian has the formL _int =1/2 ϕ_αϕ_,α F(S) whereF(S) is an arbitrary function of the spinor field invariantS=ψψ. Exact solutions of the corresponding systems of equations that take into account the natural gravitational field in a plane-symmetric metric are obtained. It is proved that the initial system of equations has regular localized soliton-type solutions only if the energy density of the zero-mass scalar field is negative as it “disengages” from interaction with the spinor field. In two-dimensional space-time the system of field equations we are studying describes the configuration of fields with constant energy densityT ₀₀ , i.e., no soliton-like solutions exist in this case.

Nonlinear spinor fields in an anisotropic universe filled with viscous fluid: Exact solutions and qualitative analysis

A self-consistent system containing a nonlinear spinor field and a Bianchi type-I (BI) gravitational field is considered in the presence of a viscous fluid and the cosmological constant. Nonlinear terms in the Lagrangian spinor-field appear either due to a self-action, or as a result of interaction with a scalar field. They are given by power functions of the invariants I and J, constructed from the bilinear spinor forms S and P. As far as the viscosity is concerned, it is a function of the energy density ? exhibiting a power-law behavior. Self-consistent solutions of the spinor, scalar, and gravitational field equations are derived. The obtained solutions are expressed in terms of the function τ(t), where τ is the volume scale in the BI-type Universe. A system of equations for τ, H, and ? is derived, where H is the Hubble constant, and ? is the viscous-flow energy. Exact solutions of the system are found for some special choices of the nonlinearity and viscosity. A complete qualitative analysis of the evolution at the boundaries is performed, and numerical solutions are obtained in the most interesting cases. In particular, it is shown that the system has Big Rip type solutions, which is typical for systems containing a phantom matter.     

Exact plane-symmetric solutions of the nonlinear equations of a spinor field in the theory of gravitation

We obtain exact plane-symmetric solutions of the spinor field equations with a nonlinear term that is an arbitrary functions of the invariant and with the self-gravitational field taken into account. Conditions are formulated for which the initial system of Einstein's equation and the spinor field equations with a power-law nonlinearity have regular solutions with localized (negative) spinor field energy density: so-called soliton-like solutions. Exact solutions of the spinor field equations are also obtained in flat space—time in this case and it is shown that the initial system of equations does not have soliton-like solutions. Hence the self-gravitational field plays a crucial (regularizing) in soliton-like solutions of the nonlinear spinor field equations.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 63–68, August, 1995.     

Plane-Symmetric Solitons of Spinor and Scalar Fields

We consider a system of nonlinear spinor and scalar fields with minimal coupling in general relativity. The nonlinearity in the spinor field Lagrangian is given by an arbitrary function of the invariants generated from the bilinear spinor forms S= and P=i⁵; the scalar Lagrangian is chosen as an arbitrary function of the scalar invariant = _,^,, that becomes linear at 0. The spinor and the scalar fields in question interact with each other by means of a gravitational field which is given by a plane-symmetric metric. Exact plane-symmetric solutions to the gravitational, spinor and scalar field equations have been obtained. Role of gravitational field in the formation of the field configurations with limited total energy, spin and charge has been investigated. Influence of the change of the sign of energy density of the spinor and scalar fields on the properties of the configurations obtained has been examined. It has been established that under the change of the sign of the scalar field energy density the system in question can be realized physically iff the scalar charge does not exceed some critical value. In case of spinor field no such restriction on its parameter occurs. In general it has been shown that the choice of spinor field nonlinearity can lead to the elimination of scalar field contribution to the metric functions, but leaving its contribution to the total energy unaltered.     

Bulk Viscous Bianchi Type-III Cosmological Model with Time-Dependent <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis> and Λ

This paper deals with Bianchi type-III anisotropic cosmological model of the universe filled with a bulk viscous fluid with time varying gravitational and cosmological constants. It is shown that the field equations are solvable for any arbitrary cosmic scale function. Exact solutions of Einstein’s field equations are obtained which represent an expanding, shearing, non-rotating and decelerating universe. The physical behaviour of the model has also been discussed.     

Early Universe with Variable Gravitational and Cosmological Constants

Einstein field equations are considered in zero-curvature Robertson–Walker (R–W) cosmology with perfect fluid source and time-dependent gravitational and cosmological “constants.” Exact solutions of the field equations are obtained by using the ’gamma-law' equation of state p = (γ − 1)ρ in which γ varies continuously with cosmological time. The functional form of γ (R) is used to analyze a wide range of cosmological solutions at early universe for two phases in cosmic history: inflationary phase and Radiation-dominated phase. The corresponding physical interpretations of the cosmological solutions are also discussed.     

Limiting energy density and a regular accelerating universe in Riemann-Cartan spacetime

Isotropic cosmology built in the Riemann-Cartan spacetime by using sufficiently general expression of gravitational Lagrangian is investigated. It is shown that cosmological equations obtained by certain restrictions on indefinite parameters of gravitational Lagrangian lead to limiting energy density at the beginning of cosmological expansion and all cosmological models filled with usual gravitating matter satisfying standard energy conditions are regular with respect to energy density, spacetime metrics with its time derivative and torsion functions. At asymptotics cosmological solutions of spatially flat models coincide with that of standard ΛCDM-model for accelerating Universe.     

Nonlinear spinor fields in Bianchi-I space: Exact self-consistent solutions

Calculations are performed to obtain exact self-consistent solutions of nonlinear spinor-field equations with self-action terms in Bianchi-I space. The latter terms are arbitrary functions of the invariant . A detailed examination is made of equations with exponential nonlinearity, when the nonlinear term in the Lagrangian of the spinor field L_n=sⁿ. Here, is the nonlinearity parameter, n>1. It is shown that these equations have finite solutions and solutions that are singular at the initial moment of time. The singularity is absent in the case of solutions that describe systems of fields for which the energy dominance condition is violated. It is further shown that if the mass parameter m0 in the spinor-field equation, expansion of Bianchi-I space becomes isotropic as t . This does not occur when m=0. Specific examples of solutions of linear and nonlinear spinor-field equations are presented.Russian University of International Fellowship.

Static Plane-Symmetric Nonlinear Spinor and Scalar Fields in GR

We consider a system of minimally coupled nonlinear spinor and scalar fields within the scope of a plane-symmetric gravitational field. The gravitational field plays crucial role in the formation of soliton-like solutions, i.e., solutions with limited total energy, spin, and charge. The change of the sign of the scalar field energy density of the system in question realizes physically if and only if the scalar charge does not exceed some critical value. In case of spinor field no such restriction on its parameter occurs. The choice of spinor field nonlinearity leads to the elimination of scalar field contribution to the metric functions, but leaves its contribution to the total energy unaltered. The spinor field is more sensitive to the gravitational field than the scalar field.     

Cosmological Model Based on Gauge Theory of Gravity

A cosmological model based on gauge theory of gravity is proposed in this paper. Combining cosmological principle and field equation of gravitational gauge field, dynamical equations of the scale factor R(t) of our universe can be obtained. This set of equations has three different solutions. A prediction of the present model is that, if the energy density of the universe is not zero and the universe is expanding, the universe must be space-flat, the total energy density must be the critical density ρ_c of the universe. For space-flat case, this model gives the same solution as that of the Friedmann model. In other words, though they have different dynamics of gravitational interactions, general relativity and gauge theory of gravity give the same cosmological model.     

Spinor fields in Bianchi type-I universe

A system of minimally coupled nonlinear spinor and scalar fields within the scope of a Bianchi type-I (BI) cosmological model in the presence of a perfect fluid and a cosmological constant (Λ term) is studied, and solutions to the corresponding field equations are obtained. The problem of initial singularity and the asymptotical isotropization process of the Universe are thoroughly studied. The effect of the Λ term on the character of evolution is analyzed. It is shown that some special choice of spinor field nonlinearity generates a regular solution, but the absence of singularity results in violating the dominant energy condition in the Hawking-Penrose theorem. It is also shown that a positive Λ, which denotes an additional gravitational force in our case, gives rise to an oscillatory or a non-periodic mode of expansion of the Universe depending on the choice of problem parameter. The regular oscillatory mode of expansion violets the dominant energy condition if the spinor field nonlinearity occurs as a result of self-action, whereas, in the case of a linear spinor field or nonlinear one that occurs due to interaction with a scalar field, the dominant condition remains unbroken. A system with time-varying gravitational (G) and cosmological (Λ) constants is also studied to some extent. The introduction of magneto-fluid in the system generates nonhomogeneity in the energy-momentum tensor and can be exactly solved only under some additional condition. Though in this case, we indeed deal with all four known fields, i.e., spinor, scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational, the over-all picture of evolution remains unchanged.     

Extended Einstein–Cartan theory à la Diakonov: The field equations

Diakonov formulated a model of a primordial Dirac spinor field interacting gravitationally within the geometric framework of the Poincaré gauge theory (PGT). Thus, the gravitational field variables are the orthonormal coframe (tetrad) and the Lorentz connection. A simple gravitational gauge Lagrangian is the Einstein–Cartan choice proportional to the curvature scalar plus a cosmological term. In Diakonov?s model the coframe is eliminated by expressing it in terms of the primordial spinor. We derive the corresponding field equations for the first time. We extend the Diakonov model by additionally eliminating the Lorentz connection, but keeping local Lorentz covariance intact. Then, if we drop the Einstein–Cartan term in the Lagrangian, a nonlinear Heisenberg type spinor equation is recovered in the lowest approximation.     

Hydrogen-like atom in the gravitational field of the universe

Exact solutions are obtained for a hydrogen-like atom in an external cosmological field of the closed and open universe. It is found that in the closed model, in addition to a gravitational analog of the Stark effect, there is a new effect-atom ionization by the gravitational field. In the open model, discrete and continuous spectra are obtained; furthermore, discrete spectrum consists of a finite number of states, and in the continuous spectrum the effect of the proton field is preserved despite absence of a bound state. It is shown that transition frequency depends on the radius (age) of the universe in both models, and, consequently, a hydrogen-like atom, in principle, cannot serve as a reference of time-frequency-length.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 1, pp. 55–59, January, 1985.     

Bianchi-I Space-time with Variable Gravitational and?Cosmological “Constants”

We consider Einstein’s field equations with variable gravitational and cosmological “constants” for a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi-I space-time. A law of variation for the Hubble parameter, which is related to the average scale factor and yields a constant value of the deceleration parameter, is assumed to solve the field equations. The gravitational constant is allowed to follow a power-law form. We find that a time-increasing gravitational constant is suitable for describing the present evolution of universe. The solutions reveal the dynamics of a universe, which expands forever. The physical interpretation of the solutions is discussed in detail.     

Fermions and gauge fields in the Einstein static universe

Exact solutions of the massive Dirac equation are obtained in an SU(2) gauge field background in the Einstein static universe. The static, finite-energy gauge field used as background is the one obtained by continuing the meron-antimeron solution to this base space. The regular spinor solutions lead to a quantization condition.     

Anisotropic Cosmological Models with Perfect Fluid and Dark Energy Reexamined

We consider a self consistent system of Bianchi type-I (BI) gravitational field and a binary mixture of perfect fluid and dark energy. The perfect fluid is taken to be the one obeying the usual equation of state, i.e., p = ξε, with ζ∉[0, 1] whereas, the dark energy is considered to be obeying a quintessence-like equation of state. The modification of the ordinary quintessence lies in the fact that its pressure becomes positive if the (dark) energy density exceeds some critical value. Exact solutions to the corresponding Einstein equations are obtained. The model in consideration gives rise to a Universe which is spatially finite. Depending on the choice of problem parameters the Universe is either close with a space-time singularity, or an open one which is oscillatory, regular and infinite in time.

Topological and physical effects of rotation and spin in the general relativistic theory of gravitation

Interrelations of the intrinsic momentum (spin), rotation of material distributions, and intrinsic momentum of the gravitational field are investigated in the context of the general relativistic theory of gravitation involving the general relativity theory (GRT) and the Einstein-Cartan theory. It is demonstrated that the spin density vector of the gravitational field s _g ⁱ is equal to the rotor of the tetrad reference point ωⁱ=ɛ^iklm e _k ^(a) e_(a)l,m/2 to within the factor 1/κ (s _g ⁱ =ω/κc). It is demonstrated that the vector s _g ⁱ is proportional to the spin density vector of the gravitating field sⁱ (ω)=jc(Ψγⁱγ₅Ψ)/2 as well as the pseudovector of space-time torsion Qⁱ in the Einstein-Cartan theory, which in both cases induces a cubic nonlinearity of the spinor field. An expression for the energy-momentum density tensor of the eddy gravitational field is derived. It is also demonstrated that the free eddy gravitational field with polarized spin can form “mole holes.” An ideal fast-rotating self-gravitating fluid can cause a similar effect. The corresponding exact solutions of joint systems of the Einstein and rotating ideal fluid equations are presented. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 57–60, October, 2007.
