Covariance of the mixmaster chaoticity

Abstract: We analyze the dynamics of the Mixmaster Universe on the base of a standard ArnowittDeser-Misner Hamiltonian approach showing how its asymptotic evolution to the cosmological singularity is isomorphic to a billiard on the Lobachevsky plane. The key result of our study consists in the temporary gauge invariance of the billiard representation, once provided the use of very general Misner-Chitré-like variables.

“…Above we neglected the role of the potential because it influences the point-Universe evolution only via the bounces producing the establishment of a new free motion (for a detailed discussion about the chaotic properties of the random behavior that the point-universe performs in the potential, see [9,10,11]). This effect of the potential is summarized by the reflection law…”

“…There are two main aspects in chaos dynamics in general relativity. One is the evolution of the gravitational field itself, such as the evolution dynamics of cosmology models, especially the mixmaster universe model [2][3][4][5]. The other is the dynamics of test particles in known spacetime.…”

“…being H a (a = l, m, n) the anisotropy parameters [10], such that the motion of the point Universe is restricted in the domain Γ H (see Figure 1). Such a dynamical scheme has the relevant feature to let free the choice of the lapse function unless explicitly chosen the form of the function Γ.…”
