A new scenario for the early era of the Universe is proposed. It corresponds to a smooth transition between a de Sitter-like phase and a radiation dominated era. We calculate the production of gravitons in this model.
Although matter contributions to the graviton self-energy $-i[\mbox{}^{\mu\nu} \Sigma^{\rho\sigma}](x;x')$ must be separately conserved on $x^{\mu}$ and ${x'}^{\mu}$, graviton contributions obey the weaker constraint of the Ward identity,…

In contrast to electrodynamics, Einstein's gravitation equations are not invariant with respect to a wide class of the mapping of field variables which leave equations of motion of test particles in a given coordinate system invariant. It…
