Conformal General Relativity

TL;DR

This paper proposes a conformal-invariant version of General Relativity that addresses key cosmological problems without inflation, explaining the origin of the CMB and matter through cosmic creation of vector bosons.

Contribution

It introduces a conformal-invariant unified theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking, providing a new explanation for the early universe, CMB origin, and matter-antimatter asymmetry.

Findings

Linearized equations solve horizon and initial data problems.

Cosmic creation of W,Z bosons explains CMB and matter.

Supernova data supports conformal cosmology with dark matter in a rigid state.

Abstract

The inflation-free solution of problems of the modern cosmology (horizon, cosmic initial data, Planck era, arrow of time, singularity,homogeneity, and so on) is considered in the conformal-invariant unified theory given in the space with geometry of similarity where we can measure only the conformal-invariant ratio of all quantities. Conformal General Relativity is defined as the $SU_c(3)\times SU(2)\times U(1)$-Standard Model where the dimensional parameter in the Higgs potential is replaced by a dilaton scalar field described by the negative Penrose-Chernikov-Tagirov action. Spontaneous SU(2) symmetry breaking is made on the level of the conformal-invariant angle of the dilaton-Higgs mixing, and it allows us to keep the structure of Einstein's theory with the equivalence principle. We show that the lowest order of the linearized equations of motion solves the problems mentioned above and describes the Cold Universe Scenario with the constant temperature T and z-history of all masses with respect to an observable conformal time. A new fact is the intensive cosmic creation of $W,Z$-vector bosons due to their mass singularity. In the rigid state, this effect is determined by the integral of motion $(m_w^2H_{\rm hubble})^{1/3}=2.7 K k_B$ that coincides with the CMB temperature and has the meaning of the primordial Hubble parameter. The created bosons are enough to consider their decay as an origin of the CMB radiation and all observational matter with the observational element abundances and the baryon asymmetry. Recent Supernova data on the relation between the luminosity distance and redshift (including the point $z=1.7$) do not contradict the dominance of the rigid state of the dark matter in the Conformal Cosmology.
