abstract

We clarify the links between a recently developped long wavelength iteration scheme of Einstein's equations, the Belinski Khalatnikov Lifchitz (BKL) general solution near a singularity and the antinewtonian scheme of Tomita's. We determine the regimes when the long wavelength or antinewtonian scheme is directly applicable and show how it can otherwise be implemented to yield the BKL oscillatory approach to a spacetime singularity. When directly applicable we obtain the generic solution of the scheme at first iteration (third order in the gradients) for matter a perfect fluid. Specializing to spherical symmetry for simplicity and to clarify gauge issues, we then show how the metric behaves near a singularity when gradient effects are taken into account.

Locality in effective field theory for inflationary soft modes

gr-qc · 2026-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

The authors define a locality condition for hard-mode states during inflation that unifies local effective dynamics for soft modes, suppression of loop corrections, generalized soft theorems, and absence of infrared divergences in observable correlators.
