Birth of Inflationary Universes via Wineglass Wormholes and their No-Boundary Relatives

George Lavrelashvili, Jean-Luc Lehners

Wineglass wormholes can nucleate inflationary spacetimes from asymptotically flat or AdS regions via analytic continuation.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

We present explicit numerical wormhole solutions supported either by an axionic field or a magnetic gauge field, in both cases in conjunction with a self-interacting scalar field. In the limit of small axionic or magnetic charge, wineglass wormhole solutions split into two separate geometries, one being the background spacetime and the other a disconnected no-boundary instanton.

C2weakest assumption

The analytic continuation from the Euclidean wineglass geometry to a Lorentzian expanding spacetime is valid and that the local maximum of the scale factor indeed triggers inflation after materialization.

C3one line summary

Wineglass wormholes with a local maximum in the scale factor mediate the birth of inflationary spacetimes and split into background plus no-boundary geometries at small axionic or magnetic charge.
