23 Dec 2009 | Abstract: | We present a dual 5D braneworld picture of a recently suggested model for a
microcanonical description of a 4D cosmology driven by a conformal field theory
with a large number of quantum fields. The 5D side of the duality relation is
represented by a generalized brane induced gravity model in a Schwarzschild-de
Sitter bulk. The values of the bulk cosmological and the induced 4D
cosmological constants are determined by requiring the absence of conical
singularity at the de Sitter horizon of the Euclidean Schwarzschild-de Sitter
bulk. Those values belong to the vicinity of the upper bound of a range of
admissible values for the cosmological constant. This upper bound is enforced
by the 4D CFT and coincides with the natural gravitational cutoff in a theory
with many quantum species. The resulting DGP/CFT duality suggests the
possibility of a new type of {em background independent} correspondence. A
mechanism for inverting the sign of the effective cosmological constant is
found, which might reconcile a negative value of the primordial cosmological
constant compatible with supersymmetry with the one required by inflationary
cosmology. | Source: | arXiv, 0912.4604 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
