In this article we briefly review the adiabatic renormalization program for spin 1/2 fields in expanding universes. We introduce the method and provide explicit expressions for the renormalized vacuum expectation value of the stress-energy…
The instability of (quasi) de Sitter spacetime from quantum gravitational effects has been discussed in many works. Especially, the gravitational backreaction from quantum energy momentum tensor is crucial for understanding the low-energy…
A particular form of the C-metric is investigated, giving it a non-standard interpretation and removing any singularity at $r = 0$. In the weak field limit of the accelerating black hole, the proper acceleration $A$ of a static observer is…
The entire classical cosmological history between two extreme de Sitter vacuum solutions is discussed based on Einstein's equations and non-equilibrium thermodynamics. The initial non-singular de Sitter state is characterised by a very high…
It is challenging to construct explicit and controllable models that realize de Sitter solutions in string compactifications. This difficulty is the main motivation for the Refined de Sitter Conjecture and the Trans-Planckian Censorship…
In de Sitter ambient space formalism, the linear gravity can be written in terms of a minimally coupled scalar field and a polarization tensor. In this formalism, the massless minimally coupled scalar field can be quantized on Bunch-Davies…
In the mathematically rigorous analysis of semiclassical Einstein's equations, the renormalisation of the stress-energy tensor plays a crucial role. We address such a topic in the case of a scalar field with both arbitrary mass and coupling…
It has been shown that the theory of linear conformal quantum gravity must include a tensor field of rank-3 and mixed symmetry [1]. In this paper, we obtain the corresponding field equation in de Sitter space. Then, in order to relate this…
We investigate the possible existence of (meta-)stable de Sitter vacua within N=1 compactifications with generalised fluxes. With the aid of an algorithm inspired by the method of differential evolution, we were able to find three novel…
The effective field theory of dark energy and modified gravity is supposed to well describe, at low energies, the behaviour of the gravity modifications due to one extra scalar degree of freedom. The usual curvature perturbation is very…
In the context of a string-inspired running vacuum model (RVM) of cosmology with anomalies and torsion-induced axion-like fields, we discuss quantum corrections to the corresponding energy density, in approximately de Sitter eras, during…
The Wightman functions in the Rindler portion of Minkowski space-time are presented for any value of the temperature and for massless spin fields up to s=1 and the renormalized stress tensor relative to Minkowski vacuum is discussed. A…
Understanding de Sitter space in supergravity - and string theory - has lead to an intense amount of work for more than two decades, largely motivated by the discovery of the accelerated expansion of the universe in 1998. In this paper, we…
It is known that the Einstein gravitational field equations in $D>4$ spacetime dimensions have no time-independent non-singular compactification solutions to de Sitter space if the $D$-dimensional stress tensor satisfies the Strong Energy…
In this note, we exhibit a situation where a stationary state of Moffatt's ideal magnetic relaxation problem is different than the corresponding force-free $L^2$ energy minimizer of Woltjer's variational principle. Such examples have been…
We study the quantum effects induced by bulk scalar fields in a model with a de Sitter (dS) brane in a flat bulk (the Vilenkin-Ipser-Sikivie model) in more than four dimensions. In ordinary dS space, it is well known that the stress tensor…
Well tempering is one of the few classical field theory methods for solving the original cosmological constant problem, dynamically canceling a large (possibly Planck scale) vacuum energy and leaving the matter component intact, while…
The approximation of the renormalized stress-energy tensor of the quantized massive scalar field in Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime is constructed. It is achieved by functional differentiation of the first two nonvanishing terms of the…
We investigate the fermionic condensate and the vacuum expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor for a massive spinor field in the geometry of a straight cosmic string on background of de Sitter spacetime. By using the Abel-Plana…
We discuss several aspects of the stress-energy tensor for a quantum scalar field in an inhomogeneous background, the latter being modeled by a variable mass. Using a perturbative approach, dimensional regularization and adiabatic…
