Dark energy in light of the discovery of the Higgs

Abstract

We discuss the impact the observation of the Higgs Boson has had on models of Dark Energy.

An approach to the theory of gravity with an arbitrary reference level of energy density

“…Let us consider a static solution for this case, which is, certainly, a pure Schwarzschild solution. Still, it is interesting, how this pure Schwarzschild solution looks in the class of metrics (25), (31)…”

“…Domination of vacuum fluctuations in the evolution of the universe. The possibility of an arbit rary choice of the energy reference level allows omitting the huge vacuum energy [30][31][32][33][34]. But the most interesting question is what remains after this omitting [33,34]?…”

“…Parameters of the metric(31), which are referred as "gravity potentials" here. The solid line is α(r), the dashed line is λ(r) and dotdashed line is the Newton potential2 g r r ϕ = − (a).…”

“…The indexes i,j… should be risen by the matrix , Let us consider an example of a spherically symmetric gravitational field, which includes both uniform flat universe and Schwarzschild metric. Spherically symmetric metric belonging the class of the FVT metrics is The isotropic coordinates used in(31) are analog of the usual Descartes coordinates. The function λ parametrizes the metric ij g  with the unit determinant and reflects deflection of the conformal geometry from Euclidian one.…”

The equation of vacuum state and the structure formation in universe

“…where γij = diag{1, 1, 1} is a Euclidean 3-metric. At this moment, at least one fundamental scalar field is known that is the Higgs boson (Copeland, 2015). Besides, as was shown in (Cherkas, Kalashnikov, 2007), the gravitational waves contribute to the vacuum energy density in the same manner as a scalar field.…”
