I’ve been exploring a cosmological model where the Ricci flow is parameterized by physical time, which naturally introduces a time arrow and allows one to model Hawking radiation and dissipative solitons.
Here’s the main takeaway for CMB angular power spectra:
TT (Temperature): Standard on large scales (
ℓ≲30
ℓ≲30), but small-scale power (
ℓ≳1000
ℓ≳1000) is exponentially damped due to the diffusive evolution of perturbations.
EE (E-mode polarization): Peaks are broadened and suppressed.
TE (Temperature-E polarization cross-correlation): Anti-correlation around
ℓ∼100
ℓ∼100 is reduced.
BB (B-mode polarization): Essentially no primordial signal, only lensing contributes.
Key prediction: This model is falsifiable because it predicts suppressed high-
ℓ
ℓ power and negligible primordial B-modes, in contrast to standard ΛCDM + inflation.
