BLACK HOLES AND BABY UNIVERSES FROM INFLATION
Alex Vilenkin (Tufts University)
with Jaume Garriga, Jun Zhang and Heling Deng
Non-perturbative quantum effects during inflation may lead to the production of primordial black holes.
• Spherical domain walls or vacuum bubbles spontaneously nucleate during inflation.
• They are stretched to very large sizes and collapse to black holes after inflation ends.
Non-perturbative quantum effects during inflation may lead to the production of primordial black holes.
• Spherical domain walls or vacuum bubbles spontaneously nucleate during inflation.
• They are stretched to very large sizes and collapse to black holes after inflation ends.
Special features:
• A scaling distribution of PBH with a very wide spectrum of masses.
• BH larger than certain critical mass have inflating universes inside.
• For some parameter values, these BH can have significant observational effects.
First focus on vacuum bubbles.
• Particle physics models generally include a number of scalar fields.Then the inflaton field rolls in a multifield potential.
• As it rolls towards our vacuum, it can tunnel to another vacuum state.

What happens to the bubbles when inflation ends?
1. Exterior view
Matter
• The bubble wall initially expands relativisticallyrelative to matter.
• It is quickly slowed down by particle scattering.
• An expanding relativistic shell of matter is formed.
Assume that matter particles are reflected from the bubble wall.
Similar to shocks in supernova explosions.
• The bubble eventually collapses to a black hole.

di↵erent time-scales are relevant to
the dynamics of such

Here, we will be primarily
interestedin

As weshall see, this
leads tothe form

Consider a spherical domain wall embedded in a spatially flat matter dominated universe. Twodi↵erent time-scales are relevant to the dynamics of such a wall. One is the cosmological scale t ⇠ H�1,and the other is the acceleration time-scale due to the repulsive gravitational field of the domain wallt� ⇠ (G�)�1.
For R ⌧ t�, the repulsive field can be ignored. In this case, for t ⌧ R ⌧ t�, the domain wall isconformally stretched by cosmological expansion. Eventually, when the wall falls within the horizon, itquickly shrinks under its tension and forms a black hole of radius RS = 2GM ⇠ t2/t� ⌧ t.
Here, we will be primarily interested in the opposite limit, where R � t�. In this case, the wall repelsthe matter around it while its size grows faster than the ambient expansion rate. As we shall see, thisleads to the formation of a wormhole. The dust which was originally in the interior of the wall goes intoa baby universe, and in the ambient FRW universe we are left with a black hole remnant cysted in aspherical region of of vacuum.
Before we consider the e↵ect of the domain wall, let us first discuss the matching of Schwarzschildand a dust cosmology.

FIG. 2: Causal diagram showing the formation of a black hole by a small vacuum bubble, with mass
Mbh ⌧ Mcr, in a dust dominated spatially flat FRW. At the time ti when inflation ends, a small
bubble (to the left of the diagram) with positive energy density ⇢b > 0, initially expands with a
large Lorentz factor relative to the Hubble flow. The motion is slowed down by momentum transfer
to matter, turning around due to the internal negative pressure and the tension of the bubble wall,
and eventually collapsing into a Schwarzschild singularity. At fixed angular coordinates, the time-
like dashed line at the edge of the dust region represents a radial geodesic of the Schwarzschild
metric (see Appendix B). Such geodesic approaches time-like infinity with unit slope. The reason
is that a smaller slope would correspond to the trajectory of a particle at a finite radial coordinate
R, while the geodesic of a particle escaping to infinity has unbounded R. The thin relativistic
expanding shell of matter produced by the bubble is not represented in the figure. This shell
disturbs the homogeneity of dust near the boundary represented by the dashed line.

The wormhole formation here does NOT violate the NEC or any singularity theorem.
• The wormhole closes in about a light crossing time.
• Some matter may follow the bubble into the wormhole. . Need numerical simulation to determine Mbh.

Figure 5: These embedding diagrams show how a wormhole develops with time outside the wall.
The flat-looking region at the top and the bottom area represent the interior and exterior regions
respectively. The ring that encircles the cap is where the wall is located. The distance from the cap
center along a longitude line is the proper radius´Bdr, while the radius of a latitude circle is the
area radius R. The throat will be pinched off when the black hole singularity is encountered. These
diagrams are not shown with the same scale. The radius of the ring should grow exponentially.
(M (in)BHf and M
(out)BHf ) that are not identical because more fluid falls in from outside due to the
initial wall thickness. In a radiation-dominated universe, there’s also mass accretion as that
in sub-critical cases. As we’ll see, for dust background M(in)BHf ⇡ M

A. Spacetime Structure
Applying adaptive mesh refinement, we are able to evolve the thin wall. However, as more
and more grid points are assigned to the wall, the code becomes computationally expensive.
Fortunately, since the wall grows exponentially away from both the interior and the exterior
regions, it can be removed when it gets almost detached and is only connected to theses
regions via two almost empty layers, where the energy density of either the scalar field or
the fluid is negligible compared to the FRW density (Fig. 6). Since we are more interested
in the black holes formed outside the wall, we may also remove the interior region and the
inner layer.
Now let’s take a look at the evolution of a constant time hypersurface near the wormhole.
We illustrate this with the help of Fig. 7, which shows how the expansions evolve, and
Fig. 8, which shows the spacetime outside the wall. These two graphs are obtained from a
simulation of a super-critical wall in radiation background with ri = 6.
15
Figure 8: Depicted under simulation coordinates, this graph shows the radiation energy density
distribution outside the wall. The wall is located at r ⇠ 6. The energy density has been rescaled so
that ⇢FRW = 1. Two apparent horizons and the cosmological horizon are shown with black dots.
Five constant time slices respectively correspond to five different stages discussed in text.
where the outer white hole and cosmological horizons arise, and the slice begins to cross a
normal region outside the throat. (4) Then the intersection of ⇥out and ⇥in reaches zero
(purple), which corresponds to a bifurcating marginal surface, and the white hole begins to
turn into a black hole. (5) The slice then leaves the WH region and two apparent horizons
appear with ⇥out = 0 (⇥in < 0) and ⇥in = 0 (⇥out < 0) respectively (brown).
As in the sub-critical case, we can excise the BH region to avoid simulation breakdown.
Now we need to cut at two apparent horizons instead of one (Fig. 9). However, we are
still able to evolve this region for a while to see how the singularity arises. After apparent
horizons appear, the area radius of the throat begins to decrease and approach zero (Fig. 10
and 11). Correspondingly, fluid energy density at the throat starts to increase and a spike
is formed that eventually goes to infinity (Fig. 11).

The mechanism is generic, but requires a high nucleation rate of bubbles or domain walls.
String theory suggests a huge landscape of vacua. Some of the bubbles are likely to have a high nucleation rate.
Similarly, string theory predicts an “axiverse” with hundreds of axionsand associated domain walls.
A discovery of black holes with the predicted distribution of masses would provide evidence for inflation – and for nontrivial spacetime structure.

Consider a spherical domain wall embedded in a spatially flat matter dominated universe. Twodi↵erent time-scales are relevant to the dynamics of such a wall. One is the cosmological scale t ⇠ H�1,and the other is the acceleration time-scale due to the repulsive gravitational field of the domain wallt� ⇠ (G�)�1.
For R ⌧ t�, the repulsive field can be ignored. In this case, for t ⌧ R ⌧ t�, the domain wall isconformally stretched by cosmological expansion. Eventually, when the wall falls within the horizon, itquickly shrinks under its tension and forms a black hole of radius RS = 2GM ⇠ t2/t� ⌧ t.
Here, we will be primarily interested in the opposite limit, where R � t�. In this case, the wall repelsthe matter around it while its size grows faster than the ambient expansion rate. As we shall see, thisleads to the formation of a wormhole. The dust which was originally in the interior of the wall goes intoa baby universe, and in the ambient FRW universe we are left with a black hole remnant cysted in aspherical region of of vacuum.
Before we consider the e↵ect of the domain wall, let us first discuss the matching of Schwarzschildand a dust cosmology.
