Primordial Entropy Production and Lambda-driven Inflation from Quantum Einstein Gravity
arXiv:0803.2546 · doi:10.1088/1742-6596/140/1/012008
Abstract
We review recent work on renormalization group (RG) improved cosmologies based upon a RG trajectory of Quantum Einstein Gravity (QEG) with realistic parameter values. In particular we argue that QEG effects can account for the entire entropy of the present Universe in the massless sector and give rise to a phase of inflationary expansion. This phase is a pure quantum effect and requires no classical inflaton field.
