1 SOME LIKE IT HOT: dynamical suppression of vacuum configurations in cosmology, and hot CMB A.O.Barvinsky Theory Department, Lebedev Physics Institute, Moscow

2 vs eternal inflation, self-reproduction and multiverse picture Initial quantum state

3 Two known prescriptions for a pure initial state: no-boundary wavefunction (Hartle-Hawking); “tunneling” wavefunction ( Linde, Vilenkin, Rubakov, Zeldovich-Starobinsky, …)

4 Euclidean spacetime Hyperbolic nature of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation Euclidean action of quasi-de Sitter instanton with the effective  (slow roll)  inflatonother fields no tunneling, really: “birth from nothing” Semiclassical properties of the no-boundary/tunneling states Analytic continuation – Lorentzian signature dS geometry: Euclidean FRW -- de Sitter invariant (Euclidean) vacuum

5 Tunneling ( - ) : probability maximum at the maximum of the inflaton potential No-boundary ( + ) : probability maximum at the mininmum of the inflaton potential vs infrared catastrophe no inflation contradicts renormalization theory for + sign Beyond tree level: inflaton probability distribution: Both no-boundary (EQG path integral) and tunneling (WKB approximation) do not have a clear operator interpretation Eucidean effective action on S 4

6 We suggest a unified framework for the no-boundary and tunneling states in the form of the path integral of the microcanonical ensemble in quantum cosmology We apply it to the Universe dominated by: i) massless matter conformally coupled to gravity new (thermal) status of the no-boundary state; bounded range of the primordial  with band structure; dynamical elimination of vacuum no-boundary and tunneling states; inflation and thermal corrections to CMB power spectrum A.B. & A.Kamenshchik, JCAP, 09, 014 (2006) Phys. Rev. D74, 121502 (2006); A.B., Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 071301 (2007)

7 Plan Cosmological initial conditions – density matrix of the Universe: microcanonical ensemble in cosmology initial conditions for the Universe via EQG statistical sum CFT driven cosmology: constraining landscape of  suppression of vacuum no-boundary and tunneling states inflation and generation of thermally corrected CMB spectrum

8 operators of the Wheeler-DeWitt equations Microcanonical density matrix – projector onto subspace of quantum gravitational constraints A.O.B., Phys.Rev.Lett. 99, 071301 (2007) Microcanonical ensemble in cosmology and EQG path integral constraints on initial value data – corner stone of any diffeomorphism invariant theory. Physical states: Statistical sum

9 Motivation: aesthetical (minimum of assumptions) Spatially closed cosmology does not have freely specifiable constants of motion. The only conserved quantities are the Hamiltonian and momentum constraints H , all having a particular value --- zero The microcanonical ensemble with is a natural candidate for the quantum state of the closed Universe – ultimate equipartition in the physical phase space of the theory --- Sum over Everything.

16 Origin of no-boundary/tunneling contributions No periodic solutions of effective equations with imaginary Euclidean lapse N (Lorentzian spacetime geometry). Saddle points exist for real N (Euclidean geometry): Deformation of the original contour of integration into the complex plane to pass through the saddle point with real N>0 or N<0 gauge equivalent N<0 gauge equivalent N>0 gauge (diffeomorphism) inequivalent!
