| The '''Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker''' ('''FLRW''') '''[[Riemannian metric|metric]]''' is an [[Exact solutions in general relativity|exact solution]] of [[Einstein field equations|Einstein's field equations]] of [[general relativity]]; it describes a [[homogeneity (physics)#Translation invariance|homogeneous]], [[isotropic]] [[metric expansion of space|expanding]] or contracting [[universe]] that may be [[simply connected space|simply connected]] or [[multiply connected]].<ref>For an early reference, see Robertson (1935); Robertson ''assumes'' multiple connectedness in the positive curvature case and says that "we are still free to restore" simple connectedness.</ref><ref name="LaLu95">{{Citation |author1=M.

| == General metric ==
| | Registered users will be able to choose between the following three rendering modes: |
|
| |
|
| The FLRW metric starts with the assumption of [[homogeneity (physics)#Translation invariance|homogeneity]] and [[isotropy]] of space. It also assumes that the spatial component of the metric can be time-dependent. The generic metric which meets these conditions is
| | '''MathML''' |
| :<math>- c^2 \mathrm{d}\tau^2 = - c^2 \mathrm{d}t^2 + {a(t)}^2 \mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Sigma}^2</math> | | :<math forcemathmode="mathml">E=mc^2</math> |
| where <math>\mathbf{\Sigma}</math> ranges over a 3-dimensional space of uniform curvature, that is, [[elliptical space]], [[Euclidean space]], or [[hyperbolic space]]. It is normally written as a function of three spatial coordinates, but there are several conventions for doing so, detailed below. <math>\mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Sigma}</math> does not depend on ''t'' — all of the time dependence is in the function ''a''(''t''), known as the "[[Scale factor (universe)|scale factor]]".
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Reduced-circumference polar coordinates===
| | <!--'''PNG''' (currently default in production) |
| In reduced-circumference polar coordinates the spatial metric has the form
| | :<math forcemathmode="png">E=mc^2</math> |
| :<math>\mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Sigma}^2 = \frac{\mathrm{d}r^2}{1-k r^2} + r^2 \mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Omega}^2, \quad \text{where } \mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Omega}^2 = \mathrm{d}\theta^2 + \sin^2 \theta \, \mathrm{d}\phi^2.</math> | |
|
| |
|
| ''k'' is a constant representing the curvature of the space. There are two common unit conventions: | | '''source''' |
| *''k'' may be taken to have units of length<sup>−2</sup>, in which case ''r'' has units of length and ''a''(''t'') is unitless. ''k'' is then the [[Gaussian curvature]] of the space at the time when ''a''(''t'') = 1. ''r'' is sometimes called the reduced [[circumference]] because it is equal to the measured circumference of a circle (at that value of ''r''), centered at the origin, divided by 2{{pi}} (like the ''r'' of [[Schwarzschild coordinates]]). Where appropriate, ''a''(''t'') is often chosen to equal 1 in the present cosmological era, so that <math>\mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Sigma}</math> measures [[comoving distance]].
| | :<math forcemathmode="source">E=mc^2</math> --> |
| *Alternatively, ''k'' may be taken to belong to the set {−1,0,+1} (for negative, zero, and positive curvature respectively). Then ''r'' is unitless and ''a''(''t'') has units of length. When ''k'' = ±1, ''a''(''t'') is the [[Radius of curvature (mathematics)|radius of curvature]] of the space, and may also be written ''R''(''t'').
| |
|
| |
|
| A disadvantage of reduced circumference coordinates is that they cover only half of the 3-sphere in the case of positive curvature—circumferences beyond that point begin to decrease, leading to degeneracy. (This is not a problem if space is [[elliptical geometry|elliptical]], i.e. a 3-sphere with opposite points identified.)

|
| ===Hyperspherical coordinates=== | | ==Demos== |
| In ''hyperspherical'' or ''curvature-normalized'' coordinates the coordinate ''r'' is proportional to radial distance; this gives
| |
| :<math>\mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Sigma}^2 = \mathrm{d}r^2 + S_k(r)^2 \, \mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Omega}^2</math>
| |
| where <math>\mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Omega}</math> is as before and
| |
| :<math>S_k(r) =
| |
| \begin{cases}
| |
| \sqrt{k}^{\,-1} \sin (r \sqrt{k}), &k > 0 \\
| |
| r, &k = 0 \\
| |
| \sqrt{|k|}^{\,-1} \sinh (r \sqrt{|k|}), &k < 0.
| |
| \end{cases}
| |
| </math>
| |
|
| |
|
| As before, there are two common unit conventions:
| | Here are some [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListFiles/Frederic.wang demos]: |
| *''k'' may be taken to have units of length<sup>−2</sup>, in which case ''r'' has units of length and ''a''(''t'' ) is unitless. ''k'' is then the [[Gaussian curvature]] of the space at the time when ''a''(''t'' ) = 1. Where appropriate, ''a''(''t'' ) is often chosen to equal 1 in the present cosmological era, so that <math>\mathrm{d}\mathbf{\Sigma}</math> measures [[comoving distance]].
| |
| *Alternatively, as before, ''k'' may be taken to belong to the set {−1,0,+1} (for negative, zero, and positive curvature respectively). Then ''r'' is unitless and ''a''(''t'' ) has units of length. When ''k'' = ±1, ''a''(''t'' ) is the [[Radius of curvature (mathematics)|radius of curvature]] of the space, and may also be written ''R''(''t'' ). Note that, when ''k'' = +1, ''r'' is essentially a third angle along with ''θ'' and ''φ''. The letter ''χ'' may be used instead of ''r''.
| |
|
| |
|
| Though it is usually defined piecewise as above, ''S'' is an [[analytic function]] of both ''k'' and ''r''. It can also be written as a [[power series]]
| |
| :<math>S_k(r) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n k^n r^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!} = r - \frac{k r^3}{6} + \frac{k^2 r^5}{120} - \cdots</math>
| |
| or as
| |
| :<math>S_k(r) = r \; \mathrm{sinc} \, (r \sqrt{k})</math>
| |
| where sinc is the unnormalized [[sinc function]] and <math>\sqrt{k}</math> is one of the imaginary, zero or real square roots of ''k''. These definitions are valid for all ''k''.

| Einstein's field equations are not used in deriving the general form for the metric: it follows from the geometric properties of homogeneity and isotropy. However, determining the time evolution of <math>a(t)</math> does require Einstein's field equations together with a way of calculating the density, <math>\rho (t),</math> such as a [[equation of state (cosmology)|cosmological equation of state]].

| These equations are the basis of the standard [[big bang]] cosmological model including the current [[Lambda-CDM model|ΛCDM]] model. Because the FLRW model assumes homogeneity, some popular accounts mistakenly assert that the big bang model cannot account for the observed lumpiness of the universe. In a strictly FLRW model, there are no clusters of galaxies, stars or people, since these are objects much denser than a typical part of the universe. Nonetheless, the FLRW model is used as a first approximation for the evolution of the real, lumpy universe because it is simple to calculate, and models which calculate the lumpiness in the universe are added onto the FLRW models as extensions. Most cosmologists agree that the [[observable universe]] is well approximated by an ''almost FLRW model'', i.e., a model which follows the FLRW metric apart from [[primordial fluctuations|primordial density fluctuations]]. {{As of|2003}}, the theoretical implications of the various extensions to the FLRW model appear to be well understood, and the goal is to make these consistent with observations from [[Cosmic Background Explorer|COBE]] and [[WMAP]].
| |
| | |
| ===Interpretation===
| |
| The pair of equations given above is equivalent to the following pair of equations
| |
| :<math>{\dot \rho} = - 3 \frac{\dot a}{a}\left(\rho+\frac{p}{c^{2}}\right)</math>
| |
| :<math>\frac{\ddot a}{a} = - \frac{4\pi G}{3}\left(\rho + \frac{3p}{c^{2}}\right) + \frac{\Lambda c^{2}}{3}</math>
| |
| with <math>k</math>, the spatial curvature index, serving as a [[constant of integration]] for the first equation.
| |
| | |
| The first equation can be derived also from [[Thermodynamics of the universe|thermodynamical considerations]] and is equivalent to the [[first law of thermodynamics]], assuming the expansion of the universe is an [[adiabatic process]] (which is implicitly assumed in the derivation of the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker metric).
| |
| | |
| The second equation states that both the energy density and the pressure cause the expansion rate of the universe <math>{\dot a}</math> to decrease, i.e., both cause a deceleration in the expansion of the universe. This is a consequence of [[gravitation]], with pressure playing a similar role to that of energy (or mass) density, according to the principles of [[general relativity]]. The [[cosmological constant]], on the other hand, [[Dark energy|causes an acceleration in the expansion]] of the universe.
| |
| | |
| ===Cosmological constant=== | |
| The [[cosmological constant]] term can be omitted if we make the following replacements
| |
| :<math>\rho \rightarrow \rho + \frac{\Lambda c^{2}}{8 \pi G}</math> | |
| :<math>p \rightarrow p - \frac{\Lambda c^{4}}{8 \pi G}.</math>
| |
| | |
| Therefore the [[cosmological constant]] can be interpreted as arising from a form of energy which has negative pressure, equal in magnitude to its (positive) energy density:
| |
| :<math>p = - \rho c^2. \,</math>
| |
| Such form of energy—a generalization of the notion of a [[cosmological constant]]—is known as [[dark energy]].
| |
| | |
| In fact, in order to get a term which causes an acceleration of the universe expansion, it is enough to have a [[scalar field theory|scalar field]] which satisfies
| |
| :<math>p < - \frac {\rho c^2} {3}. \,</math>
| |
| Such a field is sometimes called [[Quintessence (physics)|quintessence]].
| |
| | |
| ===Newtonian interpretation=== | |
| The Friedmann equations are equivalent to this pair of equations:
| |
| :<math> - a^3 {\dot \rho} = 3 a^2 {\dot a} \rho + \frac{3 a^2 p {\dot a}}{c^2} \,</math>
| |
| :<math>\frac{{\dot a}^2}{2} - \frac{G \frac{4 \pi a^3}{3} \rho}{a} = - \frac{k c^2}{2} \,.</math>
| |
| | |
| The first equation says that the decrease in the mass contained in a fixed cube (whose side is momentarily ''a'') is the amount which leaves through the sides due to the expansion of the universe plus the mass equivalent of the work done by pressure against the material being expelled. This is the conservation of mass-energy ([[first law of thermodynamics]]) contained within a part of the universe.
| |
| | |
| The second equation says that the kinetic energy (seen from the origin) of a particle of unit mass moving with the expansion plus its (negative) gravitational potential energy (relative to the mass contained in the sphere of matter closer to the origin) is equal to a constant related to the curvature of the universe. In other words, the energy (relative to the origin) of a co-moving particle in free-fall is conserved. General relativity merely adds a connection between the spatial curvature of the universe and the energy of such a particle: positive total energy implies negative curvature and negative total energy implies positive curvature.
| |
| | |
| The [[cosmological constant]] term is assumed to be treated as dark energy and thus merged into the density and pressure terms.
| |
| | |
| During the [[Planck epoch]], one cannot neglect [[quantum mechanics|quantum]] effects. So they may cause a deviation from the Friedmann equations.
| |
| | |
| == Name and history ==
| |
| | |
| The main results of the FLRW model were first derived by the Soviet mathematician [[Alexander Friedmann]] in 1922 and 1924. Although his work was published in the prestigious physics journal [[Zeitschrift für Physik]], it remained relatively unnoticed by his contemporaries. Friedmann was in direct communication with [[Albert Einstein]], who, on behalf of Zeitschrift für Physik, acted as the scientific referee of Friedmann's work. Eventually Einstein acknowledged the correctness of Friedmann's calculations, but failed to appreciate the physical significance of Friedmann's predictions.
| |
| | |
| Friedmann died in 1925. In 1927, [[Georges Lemaître]], a Belgian priest, astronomer and periodic professor of physics at the [[Catholic University of Leuven (1834–1968)|Catholic University of Leuven]], arrived independently at similar results as Friedmann and published them in Annals of the Scientific Society of Brussels. In the face of the observational evidence for the expansion of the universe obtained by [[Edwin Hubble]] in the late 1920s, Lemaître's results were noticed in particular by [[Arthur Eddington]], and in 1930–31 his paper was translated into English and published in the [[Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society]].
| |
| | |
| [[Howard P. Robertson]] from the US and [[Arthur Geoffrey Walker]] from the UK explored the problem further during the 1930s. In 1935 Robertson and Walker rigorously proved that the FLRW metric is the only one on a spacetime that is spatially homogeneous and isotropic (as noted above, this is a geometric result and is not tied specifically to the equations of general relativity, which were always assumed by Friedmann and Lemaître).
| |
| | |
| Because the dynamics of the FLRW model were derived by Friedmann and Lemaître, the latter two names are often omitted by scientists outside the US. Conversely, US physicists often refer to it as simply "Robertson–Walker". The full four-name title is the most democratic and it is frequently used.{{Citation needed|date=September 2011}} Often the "Robertson–Walker" ''metric'', so-called since they proved its generic properties, is distinguished from the dynamical "Friedmann-Lemaître" ''models'', specific solutions for ''a''(''t'') which assume that the only contributions to stress-energy are cold matter ("dust"), radiation, and a cosmological constant.
| |
| | |
| == Einstein's radius of the universe ==
| |
| | |
| '''Einstein's radius of the universe''' is the [[Radius of curvature (mathematics)|radius of curvature]] of space of [[Einstein's universe]], a long-abandoned [[Static spacetime|static]] model that was supposed to represent our universe in idealized form. Putting
| |
| :<math>\dot{a} = \ddot{a} = 0</math>
| |
| | |
| in the Friedmann equation, the radius of curvature of space of this universe (Einstein's radius) is{{Citation needed|date=June 2011}}
| |
| :<math>R_E=c/\sqrt {4\pi G\rho}</math>,
| |
| | |
| where <math>c</math> is the speed of light, <math>G</math> is the [[gravitational constant|Newtonian gravitational constant]], and <math>\rho</math> is the density of space of this universe. The numerical value of Einstein's radius is of the order of 10<sup>10</sup> [[light year]]s.
