Vacuum fluctuation, microcyclic universes, and the cosmological constant problem
Vacuum fluctuation, microcyclic universes, and the cosmological constant problem
We point out that the standard formulation of the cosmological constant problem itself is problematic since it is trying to apply the very large scale homogeneous cosmological model to very small (Planck) scale phenomenon. At small scales, both the spacetime and the vacuum stress energy are highly inhomogeneous and wildly …
