Quantum thermodynamics in a static de Sitter space-time and initial state of the universe

preprint2019arXivOpen access

Abstract

Using Relativistic Quantum Geometry we study back-reaction effects of space-time inside the causal horizon of a static de Sitter metric, in order to make a quantum thermodynamical description of space-time. We found a finite number of discrete energy levels for a scalar field from a polynomial condition of the confluent hypergeometric functions expanded around r=0r=0. As in the previous work, we obtain that the uncertainty principle is valid for each energy level on sub-horizon scales of space-time. We found that temperature and entropy are dependent on the number of sub-states on each energy's level and the Bekenstein-Hawking temperature of each energy level is recovered when the number of sub-states of a given level tends to infinity. We propose that the primordial state of the universe could be described by a de Sitter metric with Planck energy Ep=mp c2E_p=m_p\,c^2, and a B-H temperature: TBH=(ℏ c2π lp KB)T_{BH}=\left(\frac{\hbar\,c}{2π\,l_p\,K_B}\right).
