Abstract

In this paper we adapt the mathematical machinery presented in \cite{P1} to get, by means of the Laplace-Beltrami operator, the discrete spectrum of the Hamiltonian of the Schr\"{o}dinger operator perturbed by an actractive 3D delta interaction in a Friedmann flat universe. In particular, as a consequence of the treatment in \cite{P1} suitable for a Minkowski spacetime, the discrete spectrum of the ground state and the first exited state in the above mentioned cosmic framework can be regained. Thus, the coupling constant λ\lambda must be choosen as a function of the cosmic comooving time tt as λ/a2(t){\lambda}/a^{2}(t), with λ{\lambda} be the one of the static Hamiltonian studied in \cite{P1}. In this way we can introduce a time dependent delta interaction which is relevant in a primordial universe, where a(t)0a(t)\rightarrow 0 and becomes negligible at late times, with a(t)>>1a(t)>>1. We investigate, with the so obtained model, quantum effects provided by point interactions in a strong gravitational regime near the big bang. In particular, as a physically interesting application, we present a method to depict, in a semi-classical approximation, a test particle in a (non commutative) quantum spacetime where, thanks to Planckian effects, the initial classical singularity disappears and as a consequnce a ground state with negative energy emerges. Conversely, in a scenario where the scale factor a(t)a(t) follows the classical trajectory, this ground state is instable and thus physically cannot be carried out.
