In this study, we formulate a systematic way of deriving an effective equation of motion(EoM) for long wavelength modes of a massless scalar field with a general potential $V(phi)$ on de Sitter background, and investigate whether or not the effective EoM can be described as a classical stochastic process. Our formulation gives an extension of the usual stochastic formalism to including sub-leading secular growth coming from the nonlinearity of short wavelength modes. Applying our formalism to $lambda phi^4$ theory, we explicitly derive an effective EoM which correctly recovers the next-to-leading secularly growing part at a late time, and show that this effective EoM can be seen as a classical stochastic process. Our extended stochastic formalism can describe all secularly growing terms which appear in all correlation functions with a specific operator ordering, which will not be a big drawback because the commutator of a light scalar field becomes negligible at large scales owing to the squeezing.

We derive a noncovariant but simple representation for the self-energy of a conformally transformed graviton field on the cosmological patch of de Sitter. Our representation involves four structure functions, as opposed to the two that would be necessary for a manifestly de Sitter invariant representation. We work out what the four structure functions are for the one loop correction due to a massless, minimally coupled scalar. And we employ the result to work out what happens to dynamical gravitons.
It is known that the perturbative instability of tensor excitations in higher derivative gravity may not take place if the initial frequency of the gravitational waves are below the Planck threshold. One can assume that this is a natural requirement if the cosmological background is sufficiently mild, since in this case the situation is qualitatively close to the free gravitational wave in flat space. Here, we explore the opposite situation and consider the effect of a very far from Minkowski radiation-dominated or de Sitter cosmological background with a large Hubble rate, e.g., typical of an inflationary period. It turns out that, then, for initial Planckian or even trans-Planckian frequencies, the instability is rapidly suppressed by the very fast expansion of the universe.
We exploit a recent computation of one graviton loop corrections to the self-mass [1] to quantum-correct the field equation for a massless, conformally coupled scalar on a de Sitter background. With the obvious choice for the finite part of the $R^2 phi^2$ counterterm, we find that neither plane wave mode functions nor the response to a point source acquires large infrared logarithms. However, we do find a decaying logarithmic correction to the mode function and a short distance logarithmic running of the potential in addition to the power-law effect inherited from flat space.
We obtain the Kerr-anti-de-sitter (Kerr-AdS) and Kerr-de-sitter (Kerr-dS) black hole (BH) solutions to the Einstein field equation in the perfect fluid dark matter background using the Newman-Janis method and Mathematica package. We discuss in detail the black hole properties and obtain the following main results: (i) From the horizon equation $g_{rr}=0$, we derive the relation between the perfect fluid dark matter parameter $alpha$ and the cosmological constant $Lambda$ when the cosmological horizon $r_{Lambda}$ exists. For $Lambda=0$, we find that $alpha$ is in the range $0<alpha<2M$ for $alpha>0$ and $-7.18M<alpha<0$ for $alpha<0$. For positive cosmological constant $Lambda$ (Kerr-AdS BH), $alpha_{max}$ decreases if $alpha>0$, and $alpha_{min}$ increases if $alpha<0$. For negative cosmological constant $-Lambda$ (Kerr-dS BH), $alpha_{max}$ increases if $alpha>0$ and $alpha_{min}$ decreases if $alpha<0$; (ii) An ergosphere exists between the event horizon and the outer static limit surface. The size of the ergosphere evolves oppositely for $alpha>0$ and $alpha<0$, while decreasing with the increasing $midalphamid$. When there is sufficient dark matter around the black hole, the black hole spacetime changes remarkably; (iii) The singularity of these black holes is the same as that of rotational black holes. In addition, we study the geodesic motion using the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism and find that when $alpha$ is in the above ranges for $Lambda=0$, stable orbits exist. Furthermore, the rotational velocity of the black hole in the equatorial plane has different behaviour for different $alpha$ and the black hole spin $a$. It is asymptotically flat and independent of $alpha$ if $alpha>0$ while is asymptotically flat only when $alpha$ is close to zero if $alpha<0$.
We explore non-adiabatic particle production in a de Sitter universe for a scalar spectator field, by allowing the effective mass $m^2(t)$ of this field and the cosmic time interval between non-adiabatic events to vary stochastically. Two main scenarios are considered depending on the (non-stochastic) mass $M$ of the spectator field: the conformal case with $M^2=2H^2$, and the case of a massless field. We make use of the transfer matrix formalism to parametrize the evolution of the system in terms of the occupation number, and two phases associated with the transfer matrix; these are used to construct the evolution of the spectator field. Assuming short-time interactions approximated by Dirac-delta functions, we numerically track the change of these parameters and the field in all regimes: sub- and super-horizon with weak and strong scattering. In all cases a log-normally distributed field amplitude is observed, and the logarithm of the field amplitude approximately satisfies the properties of a Wiener process outside the horizon. We derive a Fokker-Planck equation for the evolution of the transfer matrix parameters, which allows us to calculate analytically non-trivial distributions and moments in the weak-scattering limit.
