Coarse-graining: other approachesLindquist-Wheeler (LW) (1959) l<strong>at</strong>tice model: continuumFLRW model is only realised as an approxim<strong>at</strong>ionLike Swiss cheese it assumes a simplified hierarchysph symmetricgµν → gµνuniverseClifton & Ferreira studied light propag<strong>at</strong>ion in thesp<strong>at</strong>ially fl<strong>at</strong> LW model, and initially concluded1 + z ≃ (1 + z FLRW) 7/10 .However, after correcting a numerical error, the resultswere no different to the standard Friedman case(Clifton, Ferreira & O’Donnell, arXiv:1110.3191)Symmetry implies Friedmann evolution still; like Swisscheese this limits the metric <strong>of</strong> the universe15th <strong>Brazilian</strong> <strong>School</strong> on Cosmology and Gravit<strong>at</strong>ion, August 2012 – p.22/143
Korzyński’s covariant coarse-grainingIsometrically embed the boundary <strong>of</strong> a comovingdust-filled domain (with S 2 topology, positive scalarcurv<strong>at</strong>ure) into a three-dimensional Euclidean spaceConstruct a “fictitious” 3-dimensional fluid velocity whichinduces the same infinitesimal metric deform<strong>at</strong>ion onthe embedded surface as “true” flow on domainboundary original spacetimeUse velocity field to uniquely assign coarse-grainedexpressions for the volume expansion and shear.Using pushforward <strong>of</strong> ADM shift vector similarly obtain acoarse-grained vorticity.Coarse-grained quantities are quasilocal functionalswhich depend only on the geometry <strong>of</strong> the domainboundary.
