Classification of Spatially Flat Cosmological Solutions in the Presence of the Cosmological Constant and Backreaction of Conformally Invariant Quantum Fields
We find all the spatially flat Robertson-Walker type solutions of Einstein's equations with the cos· mological constant and quantum fluctuations of conformally invariant matter fields, which include effects of the conformal anomaly. We show that the relevant back-reaction equation is interpreted as an equation of motion for a classical one-dimensional potential problem with (anti·) dissipation. By consider­ ing the potential form, we can easily classify all the solutions and understand their qualitative behaviour, such as monotonic expansion (contraction), oscillation, contraction followed by expansion. Only two kinds of asymptotic behaviour are allowed, both in the past and in the future. They are (1) exponential expansion or contraction (asymptotically de Sitter) and (2) singularity (zero or infinity of the scale factor) at a finite cosmic time. Stability of de Sitter solutions (singular solutions) is also discussed. The Minkowski solution in the case of the vanishing cosmological constant is shown to be unstable, irrespectively of th~ sign of a parameter in the equation. .

Axially symmetric solution of the Einstein equation with solitons in extra dimensions
Abstract We give the solution to the higher dimensional Einstein equation with axial symmetry by using the inverse scattering method. The solution consists of two solitons in the external dimensions and any number of solitons in the internal dimensions.

De Sitter metric as a self-consistent solution of the back reaction problem
Abstract The de Sitter metric is a solution of the Einstein equation even when quantum effects of matter fields are included. However between the curvature and the cosmological constant Λ changes drastically. For some values of Λ, there are two or three solutions, while there is none in some other cases. There can be even a positive curvature solution for negative Λ. These features depend on mass and spin of matter fields and the matter-curvature coupling.

A Metric Representation of Belavin's Yang-Mills Pseudoparticle Solution and Its Relation to Some Isotropic Universe
In order to investigate a physical connection between the quantum tunneling processes (vacuum-to vacuum transition or thermal radiation) of Yang-Mills 11 •*' and gravitational" pseudoparticles, T omimatsu"'<l compared several (especially, topological) properties of the Belavin and Schwarzschild solutions with each other in terms of their Euclidean metrics. For that purpose, he transformed the Belavin solution into a metric form on the basis of Carmeli's'l formalism which describes the general theory of relativity in the form of an SL (2, C) gauge field. He showed that, of the two important topological quantities P (the Pontryagin number) and X (the Euler characteristic), P= 0 and ;: '-2 for the rewritten Belavin solution, similar to the result that P= 0 and !: ~, 2 for the Schwarzschild solution. To assure the idea that the origin of radiation with a thermal nature from both pseudoparticles is due to the fact that their x's are non-vanishing, he"b' performed a path-integral approach to the quantization of a massive scalar field in the gravitational field corresponding to Belavin' s solution. The resulting energy spectrum was an incomplete thermal one because of its non -uniform temper a ture and non -zero

The Renormalized Energy-Momentum Tensor In a Robertson -Walker Universe
An expectation value of the energy·momentum tensor for a massive scalar field propagating in a Robertson-\\;'alker universe is calculated by taking account of both effects caused by the particle creation and the vacuum polarization. A special case of the Chitre-Hartle universe which enables us to perform an explicit calculation is also treated.

Nonperturbative studies of fuzzy spheres in a matrix model with the Chern-Simons term
Fuzzy spheres appear as classical solutions in a matrix model obtained via dimensional reduction of 3-dimensional Yang-Mills theory with the Chern-Simons term. Well-defined perturbative expansion around these solutions can be formulated even for finite matrix size, and in the case of k coincident fuzzy spheres it gives rise to a regularized U(k) gauge theory on a noncommutative geometry. Here we study the matrix model nonperturbatively by Monte Carlo simulation. The system undergoes a first order phase transition as we change the coefficient (α) of the Chern-Simons term. In the small α phase, the large-N properties of the system are qualitatively the same as in the pure Yang-Mills model (α = 0), whereas in the large α phase a single fuzzy sphere emerges dynamically. Various `multi fuzzy spheres' are observed as meta-stable states, and we argue in particular that the k coincident fuzzy spheres cannot be realized as the true vacuum in this model even in the large-N limit. We also perform one-loop calculations of various observables for arbitrary k including k = 1. Comparison with our Monte Carlo data suggests that higher order corrections are suppressed in the large-N limit.

Monte Carlo studies of the GWW phase transition in large-N gauge theories
Abstract In the study of the small ten-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole, the black hole to string transition is an important problem. In [L. Alvarez-Gaume, P. Basu, M. Marino, S.R. Wadia, Eur. Phys. J. C 48 (2006) 647 hep-th/0605041], a possible identification is made between the Gross–Witten–Wadia (GWW) type third-order large- N phase transition in the boundary gauge theory and the string-black hole transition in the bulk. In this Letter, we exhibit the existence of the GWW transition by Monte Carlo simulation in the zero mode bosonic action of the finite-temperature N = 4 SYM theory on S 3 . Exhibiting this transition in the truncated but highly non-trivial gauge theory implies that in the vicinity of the critical temperature T c , the system goes critical, and the fluctuations give rise to universal formulas derived in [L. Alvarez-Gaume, P. Basu, M. Marino, S.R. Wadia, Eur. Phys. J. C 48 (2006) 647, hep-th/0605041]. We also discuss the issue of SO ( 6 ) R -symmetry breaking.

Matrix model with manifest general coordinate invariance
Abstract We present a formulation of a matrix model which manifestly possesses the general coordinate invariance when we identify the large N matrices with differential operators. In order to build a matrix model which has the local Lorentz invariance, we investigate how the so (9,1) Lorentz symmetry and the u ( N ) gauge symmetry are mixed together. We first analyze the bosonic part of the model, and we find that the Einstein gravity is reproduced in the classical low-energy limit. We then present a proposal to build a matrix model which has N =2 SUSY and reduces to the type IIB supergravity in the classical low-energy limit.

A Study of the Complex Action Problem in a Simple Model for Dynamical Compactification in Superstring Theory Using the Factorization Method
The IIB matrix model proposes a mechanism for dynamically generating four dimensional space--time in string theory by spontaneous breaking of the ten dimensional rotational symmetry $\textrm{SO}(10)$. Calculations using the Gaussian expansion method (GEM) lend support to this conjecture. We study a simple $\textrm{SO}(4)$ invariant matrix model using Monte Carlo simulations and we confirm that its rotational symmetry breaks down, showing that lower dimensional configurations dominate the path integral. The model has a strong complex action problem and the calculations were made possible by the use of the factorization method on the density of states $\rho_n(x)$ of properly normalized eigenvalues $\tilde\lambda_n$ of the space--time moment of inertia tensor. We study scaling properties of the factorized terms of $\rho_n(x)$ and we find them in agreement with simple scaling arguments. These can be used in the finite size scaling extrapolation and in the study of the region of configuration space obscured by the large fluctuations of the phase. The computed values of $\tilde\lambda_n$ are in reasonable agreement with GEM calculations and a numerical method for comparing the free energy of the corresponding ansatze is proposed and tested.

Investigation of Matrix Theory via Super Lie Algebra
This paper reports the investigation of a matrix model via super Lie algebra, following the proposal of L. Smolin. We consider the osp(1|32,R) nongauged matrix model and gl(1|32,R) gauged matrix model, especially paying attention to the supersymmetry and the relationship with IKKT model. This paper is based on the collaboration with the collaboration with S.Iso, H.Kawai and Y.Ohwashi.
