278 Dynamical black holes from intersecting M-branes Figure 1: Conformal diagram of a black hole in an expanding universe. The green lines denote the R = constant surfaces, which change the signature across the trapping horizons. The central points R = 0 are the locally naked spacetime singularities. 3 Concluding Remarks We have analyzed the spacetime structure of a time-dependent, spherically-symmetric solution obtained via dimensional reduction of the intersecting branes in 11-dimensional supergravity. We revealed that the spacetime describes a black hole immersed in an FLRW universe filled by a stiff fluid. Surprisingly, the solution admits a nondegenerate Killing horizon, so that the ambient matters fail to fall into the black hole. This distinguished property may be traced back to the fact that the overlapping brane configuration recovers supersymmetry in the static limit. The Killing symmetry of the horizon encourages us to discuss the black hole thermodynamics in an expanding universe. To proceed, we need an optimal definition of the black-hole mass, which is yet unavailable but an interesting open question. In this article, we have focused on a spacetime that has identical monopole sources and approaches to the stiff-matter dominated expanding universe. The multi-center generalization is an interesting future work, since it plausibly describes the black-hole collision in a contracting universe. Furthermore, the authors in [7] found a more general solution–encompassing the present metric–that is asymptotically FLRW cosmos obeying arbitrary power-law expansion. The causal structure of this metric is under study. References [1] S. W. Hawking and G. F. R. Ellis, “The large scale structure of space-time” (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1973). [2] B.

Abstract<br />
We study cosmological dynamics of a multi-field system for a general Lagrangian<br />
density having scaling solutions. This allows the possibility that scaling radiation<br />
and matter eras are followed by a late-time cosmic acceleration through an assisted<br />
inflation mechanism. Using the bound coming from Big-Bang-Nucleosynthesis (BBN)<br />
and the condition under which each field cannot drive inflation as a single component<br />
of the universe, we find the following features: (i) a transient or eternal cosmic<br />
acceleration can be realized after the scaling matter era, (ii) a “thawing” property of<br />
assisting scalar fields is crucial to determine the evolution of the field equation of state<br />
w ϕ , and (iii) the field equation of state today can be consistent with the observational<br />
bound w ϕ in the presence of multiple scalar fields.<br />
1 Introduction<br />
The constantly accumulating observational data continue to confirm the existence of dark energy responsible<br />
for cosmic acceleration today. The cosmological constant, whose equation of state is w = −1,<br />
has been favored by the combined data analysis of supernovae Ia, cosmic microwave background, and<br />
baryon acoustic oscillations. Meanwhile, if the cosmological constant originates from a vacuum energy<br />
associated with particle physics, its energy scale is enormously larger than the observed value of dark<br />
energy (ρ DE ≈ 10 −47 GeV 4 ). Hence it is important to pursue an alternative possibility to construct dark<br />
energy models consistent with particle physics.<br />
Scalar-field models such as quintessence and k-essence have been proposed to alleviate the above<br />
problem. In particular cosmological scaling solutions are attractive to alleviate the energy scale problem<br />
of dark energy because the solutions enter the scaling regime even if the field energy density is initially<br />
comparable to the background fluid density. However the condition required for the existence of scaling<br />
solutions is incompatible with the condition for the existence of a late-time accelerated solution. Hence,<br />
in the single field case, the scaling solution cannot be followed by the scalar-field dominated solution<br />
responsible for dark energy. One of the ways to allow a transition from the scaling regime to the epoch of<br />
a late-time cosmic acceleration is to consider multiple scalar fields. For a general multi-field Lagrangian<br />
density having scaling solutions, we discuss how scaling radiation and matter eras are followed by an<br />
epoch of the late-time cosmic acceleration.<br />
