Wormhole Cosmology and the Horizon Problem
David Hochberg, Thomas W. Kephart
TL;DR
This paper constructs dynamic wormholes connecting different regions of the early universe, potentially allowing thermal contact and signal transmission, offering a novel approach to the horizon problem.
Contribution
It introduces explicit models of dynamic Lorentzian wormholes linking FRW spacetimes, expanding the understanding of early universe connectivity.
Findings
Wormholes enable two-way signal transmission between distant regions.
Network of wormholes could facilitate thermal equilibrium in the early universe.
Explicit wormhole solutions demonstrate possible cosmological implications.
Abstract
We construct an explicit class of dynamic lorentzian wormholes connecting Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) spacetimes. These wormholes can allow two-way transmission of signals between spatially separated regions of spacetime and could permit such regions to come into thermal contact. The cosmology of a network of early Universe wormholes is discussed.
