The conclusion of the above discussion: provided Λ = 0 and p = 0, we may
determine the age and the curvature of the universe by evaluating the observable
relations at t = t0. Since, in principle, we can determine H0 and ρ0 independently,
we can find whether k = 0, +1 or − 1. The density ρEdS for k = 0, shows up as the
critical density. Generally,
ρ(t) = ρEdS(t) · 2 q(t)
such that
ρ0 > ρ0 EdS
ρ0 < ρ0 EdS

In any case the matter dominated energy density ρmat is known not to be given by
the normal baryonic matter which stars, planets, dust and interstellar gas are
made of. There are many indications that baryonic matter is only a fraction of the
total gravitating matter, which is mainly Dark Matter (DM). Dark matter, which only
manifests to us by gravitational interaction, is seen in galaxies (velocity profiles), in
relative motion of the objects in clusters of galaxies (Fritz Zwicky 1933, applying
the virial theorem to Coma Cluster) as well as in the universe as a whole (CMB
fluctuations). A very important “tool” in dark matter search is gravitational lensing,
which convincingly supports the other findings, and in addition provides important
information concerning the distribution of DM. We will discussed this in detail later,
together with Observational findings.

The critical energy density and the flatness problem
In general we have some mixture of vacuum energy, relativistic and non-relativistic
matter. We have seen that the Einstein-de Sitter universe with k=0 plays a special
role. In the present matter dominated era ρEdS plays the boundary case between
expansion forever or recontraction. We therefore define
ρ0,crit = ρEdS =
3H02
8πG N
= 1.878 × 10−29 h2 gr/cm3,
where H0 is the present Hubble constant, and h its value in units of 100 km s−1
Mpc−1, and express the energy density in units of ρ0,crit. Thus the present
density ρ0 is represented by
Ω0 = ρ0/ρ0,crit
and
c 2009, F. Jegerlehner

31
Cosmology
Ω0 = 1
is the critical density for which the universe just remains open, infinite and flat.
Ω0 > 1
the case of much matter, space closes due to gravitational attraction of mass.
Gravity stops the expansion after finite time, the universe collapses, ends in heat
death!
Ω0 < 1
the case of little matter, gravity not sufficient to stop expansion, universe expands
forever, space open, ends in freezing to death!
If we include the cosmological constant as a vacuum energy density in the total
density ρ, we may write the Friedmann equations in the form
Ṡ 2
c2
+ k = 3κ ρ S 2 and
3 c2S̈S = − 2κ (3 p + ρ)
and the energy-momentum conservation as
c 2009, F. Jegerlehner
≪x

32
Cosmology
ρ̇ = −3 SṠ (ρ + p) .
If the mixture of radiation and matter dominates over the vacuum energy 3p + ρ is
always positive and thus we have S̈ /S ≤ 0. This means that the expansion must
have started with S = 0 in the past and the present age must be lower than the
Hubble age: t0 < H0−1 (see figure in EdS case above). For k = 1 this also implies
the recontraction to S = 0.

It is truly remarkable that at that early times, precisely when we would expect
curvature the be most important, the evolution automatically picks the flat solution.
This does not mean, however, that at later times when the other energy density
components come in to play and even dominate the scene we have to expect a flat
space one.
In fact the observed energy density at present is close to the critical one. This we
will discuss later. Even if one counts the normal baryonic matter only one is not
much more than a factor of 10 off from the critical value Ω = 1 (atoms ∼ 4%) . The

missing part making Ω = 1 complete is dark matter (cosmological constant 73%)
and cold dark matter (what is it ? 23%). The strongly time and scenario
dependent energy density ρ(t) easily deviates by 60 orders of magnitude from
ρ0,crit today, given the evolution during the enormous time span of the present age
of the universe. In other words, the flat solution Ω = 1 is highly unstable. How is it
possible then that we apparently live in a universe close to that unstable point?
This is the so called flatness problem (Dicke 1969). The solution: either
cosmological fine-tuning assuming we really started with an accuracy of 62 or
more digits with Ω = 1 or some dynamical mechanism transmutes this unstable
point into an stable attractor, this is what inflation theory, to be discussed later, can
do for us.
Exercise: confirm the necessary fine tuning in the cosmic evolution by explicit
calculation.

The issue about the true value of the cosmological constant, which likely is
non-vanishing as mentioned earlier, will be reconsidered later. In any case we
have to discuss the solution of the cosmological equations for the case on
non-zero cosmological constant. The consequences for the empty world case we
already discussed: flat “background space” gets replaced by de Sitter or anti-de
Sitter space. The generalization to the matter dominated scenario is almost trivial.
A glimpse at the Friedmann equation shows that one can treat the cosmological
constant as a contribution to the energy density:
κρmat + Λ → κρtot,
where ρtot = ρtot + ρΛ with ρΛ = Λκ . Provided p = 0, all solutions remain unchanged,
except for a different interpretation of the energy density, which in this case is not
identical with the “normal” mass density of baryonic plus dark matter. Note that
the cosmological constant in general enters the equation of state in a not a priori
known way. However, this seems not to matter as long as we have p ' 0.

That a non-vanishing Λ spoils the geometry ⇔ matter duality, because the
Einstein equation remains true no matter on which side of the equation we write
the cosmological term. Many believe it has some thing to do with quantum
vacuum fluctuations, but no answer can be given why it is so small. In any case if
we take the energy momentum tensor as given on the quantum level by the
Standard Model (SM) of strong and electroweak interactions we would expect the
Higgs field vacuum expectation value (Bose condensate) as well as the quark
condensates to contribute to the cosmological constant. Again, the value obtained
is about 50 orders of magnitude to big! What tames the cosmological constant to
a small non-vanishing value?
Exercise: estimate the cosmological constant as induced by the Higgs mechanism
and by spontaneous symmetry breaking of chiral symmetry in QCD.
A cosmological constant of course affects local gravitation in particular it might
affect black holes by changing the Schwarzschild radius etc. In order to study the
physical effect of a non-vanishing Λ we consider the spherically symmetric mass

Note: z = constant is the hyperboloid: (cT )2 − W 2 = constant. Homogeneity and
Isotropy follow from the symmetry: S 4− is invariant under 5-dimensional Lorentz
transformations. The force is linear repulsive F ∝ 13 Λ r.

Note: z = constant is the circle: (cT )2 + W 2 = constant. Homogeneity and Isotropy
follow from the symmetry: S 4+ is invariant under S O(2, 3). The force is linear
attractive F ∝ − 13 Λ r. Causality problem: periodicity in time ct → ct + 2 π a. The
circle in the (cT, W) plane is acausal. May be cured by mapping the circle to the
real line: which is the universal cover of the AdS space.
For the cosmological solutions of the Einstein-Friedmann equations the RW-metric
is only affected as far as S (t) solves a different dynamical equation.
Exercise: find the model Einstein proposed: an eternal static solution. Show that
Einstein’s GRT with vanishing cosmological constant has no such solution.
Exercise: the observation of planetary motions constrains the cosmological
constant to |Λ| 10−42 cm−2 !. Show that this is compatible with a dark energy
density, which has been determined to be ΩΛ ∼ 0.74 ± 0.03.
