Abstract
- In this article, we investigate the mechanism of cosmological expansion and inflation by modeling dark energy as a four-dimensional continuous medium, with its elastic deformation described by a four-dimensional vector field. We demonstrate that when the bulk modulus of this cosmological medium is $K = 1.64 \times 10^{109} \text{ N}\cdot\text{m}^{-2}$, the dark energy density, corresponding to the stress-energy associated with the deformation of the medium, decreases by a factor of $\sim 10^{122}$ while the scaling factor expands from $\sim 10^{-60}$ to $\sim 10^{-32}$ over approximately $10^{-42}$ seconds during cosmological inflation in the early universe. Our analysis suggests three potential new physical phenomena for future investigation: detecting longitudinal modes of elastic waves, examining discrepancies in the redshift of light from the early universe, and fitting supernova curves using the parameters introduced in our model.<br />Comment: New version, thoroughly revisited
