Complete classification of Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker solutions with linear equation of state: parallelly propagated curvature singularities for general geodesics

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We completely classify the Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker solutions with spatial curvature K=0,±1K=0,\pm 1 for perfect fluids with linear equation of state p=wρp=wρ, where ρρ and pp are the energy density and pressure, without assuming any energy conditions. We extend our previous work to include all geodesics and parallelly propagated curvature singularities, showing that no non-null geodesic emanates from or terminates at the null portion of conformal infinity and that the initial singularity for K=0,−1K=0,-1 and −5/3<w<−1-5/3<w<-1 is a null non-scalar polynomial curvature singularity. We thus obtain the Penrose diagrams for all possible cases and identify w=−5/3w=-5/3 as a critical value for both the future big-rip singularity and the past null conformal boundary.
