Evolution of fluctuations in energy at the horizon and in the volume enclosed by it, in an expanding universe (2408.09771v3)

Abstract: This study examines the statistical fluctuations in energy on the Hubble horizon and the Komar energy, which represents the total gravitational energy within the horizon, as the universe expands. Our analysis reveals that these fluctuations generally decrease over time but experience a pronounced spike during the universe's transition into its later accelerated expansion phase. In the framework of the standard $\Lambda$CDM model, the evolution of these fluctuations shows similar behaviour, eventually stabilising at a constant minimum value. We also find that these fluctuations are holographically connected, provided the universe ends in a de Sitter phase. This holographic connection suggests that in the final de Sitter epoch, the relative fluctuations of the horizon energy and the Komar energy are equivalent, and satisfies, $\sigma_H^2/\left<E_H\right>^2=1/N_{surf}=1/N_{bulk} = \sigma_V^2/\left<E_V\right>^2.$
