Dynamical de Sitter phase and nontrivial holonomy in strongly coupled gauge theories in an expanding universe
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We discuss a new scenario for early cosmology when the inflationary de Sitter phase emerges dynamically. This genuine quantum effect occurs as a result of dynamics of the topologically nontrivial sectors in a strongly coupled QCD-like gauge theory in an expanding universe. We test these ideas by explicit computations in hyperbolic space ${\mathbb{H}}_{\ensuremath{\kappa}}^{3}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{\mathbb{S}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}}^{1}$. We argue that the key element for this idea to work is the presence of nontrivial holonomy computed along ${\mathbb{S}}_{{\ensuremath{\kappa}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}}^{1}$. The effect is nonlocal in nature, nonanalytical in coupling constant and cannot be described in terms of any local propagating degree of freedom such as scalar inflaton field $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Phi}}(x)$. We discuss some profound phenomenological consequences of this scenario for inflationary cosmology. We also suggest to test these ideas in a tabletop experiment by measuring some specific corrections to the Casimir pressure in the Maxwell theory formulated on a topologically nontrivial manifold.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
