Abstract We have studied relativistic equations and chaotic behaviors of the gravitational field on the basis of general relativity and chaotic dynamics. The Friedmann equation [the space component] shows chaotic behaviors in case of the _ inflation ðG=G > 0Þ and open (f = 1) universe. There occurs non-chaotic behaviors in other cases _ ðG=G 5 0; f ¼ 0; f ¼ þ1Þ. We have shown the following properties of the Friedmann chaos; (1) the sensitive dependence of solutions on parameters, (2) the self-similarity of solutions in the x–_x plane and the x–q plane. Numerical calculations were carried out with the use of the microsoft EXCEL. We have also discussed the self-similarity and the hierarchy structure of the universe on the basis of E infinity theory.

1. Introduction Recently, several authors have studied the metric tensors and the non-linear properties of the gravitational field on the basis of general relativity and non-linear theory [1–4]. Especially, El Naschie has studied the solitonic solution of the gravitational field equation with the use of the Eguchi–Hanson metric [1]. Rugh has analyzed the extended Robertson– Walker metric and discussed the chaos in the Einstein equation [3]. We have studied the compact Robertson–Walker metric and shown the Friedmann equation demonstrates the chaotic behaviors in the case the inflation universe _ ðG=G > 0Þ [4]. In this paper, we discuss the chaotic behaviors of the Friedmann equation in case of the open universe (f = 1). According to the general theory of relativity, the gravitational field equation is given as follows [5–7]: Gik þ jT ik þ kgik ¼ 0; j¼

where the symbols Gik and Tik denote the Einstein tensor and the energy-momentum tensor, respectively. The third term is the cosmological term, and the symbols k and gik show the universal constant and the metric tensor of the fourdimensional continuum, respectively [8,9]. The above equation is called as ‘‘the Einstein equation’’ in this paper. From chaos theoretical point of view, the non-linear property of relativistic field equation is interesting and may introduce chaotic behaviors under certain conditions. In Section 2, following the text book of Einstein [7], we study the Friedmann model and show the chaotic behaviors of the gravitational field. In Section 3, we give numerical results and discuss the chaotic properties in the Friedmann equation. In Section 4, we give some discussions on the related problems. Summary is given in Section 5.
2. The Friedmann model Several authors discussed the Friedmann equation [3,4,7]. Here, we review briefly the Friedmann model of the universe [7]. 2.1. The Friedmann equation Friedmann found the solution of the Einstein equation in 1922. The metric is given as follows: ds2 ¼ ðdx4 Þ2 G2 A2 ½ðdx1 Þ2 þ ðdx2 Þ2 þ ðdx3 Þ2 ; 1 ; ðf ¼ þ1; 0; 1Þ: A¼ 1 þ 4f r2 The function G = G(t) satisfies the following equations: 1 € þ ðGÞ _ 2 g þ jp k ¼ 0; ff þ 2GG G2 3 _ 2 g þ jq þ k ¼ 0: 2 ff þ ðGÞ G Here, the symbols p and q show the pressure and the density, respectively. These equations are the space component and the time component of the Einstein equation, respectively. By eliminating the constant k from these equations, we have € G_ 2 f j G 2 þ ðp þ qÞ ¼ 0: 2 G G G Also, by eliminating the parameter f, we obtain € j 1 G þ ð3p þ qÞ k ¼ 0: 3 G 6 Among these four equations, two of them are independent, and we discuss the properties of three equations except for the second equation [the time component of the Einstein equation]. For convenience, we use the variable x instead of G; x¼
1 : G
With the use of this relation, the above three equations are transformed into the following form [4]: €x þ a
x_ 2 þ bx þ cx3 ¼ d F ðp; q; xÞ; x
where the function F(p,q,x) is defined as follows. 8 9 ½Case 1 > > < px; = F ðp; q; xÞ ¼ ðp þ qÞx; ½Case 2 : > > : ; ð3p þ qÞx; ½Case 3

See text for details.
The coefficients a, b, c and d are listed in Table 1. At this stage, we have two independent field equations [the space component and the time component of the Einstein equation] and three unknowns (p, q and x = 1/G). To obtain the solutions of these equations, we must have one more equation. Here, we use the conservation law q_ ¼ 3

Properties of the Friedmann equation Here, we discuss the approximate solutions of the Friedmann equation and give comments on the properties of these solutions. 2.2.1. The approximate solution in the x–_x plane We consider the Friedmann equation in Case 1 (a = 5/2, b = k/2, c = f/2, d = j/2). The equation is written as follows: €x þ a
x_ 2 þ cx3 ¼ d p x; x
where we set k = 0 in the Friedmann model. By integrating the above equation, we have

In the next section, this property is shown to be approximately satisfied by the numerical solution of the Friedmann equation. (i) The vibrational mode (f = 1; c = +0.5). 3 For the positive value R of x, the factor x_ takes both positive and negative values in case of the vibrational mode. Therefore, the integral ð_x3 =xÞdx is very small and almost zero for the one cycle, and we have c x_ 2 d p x2 þ x4 ’ constðtÞ: 2 From this equation, we obtain 2 c 2 d p x ’ constðtÞ: x_ 2 þ 2 c This solution has the approximate symmetry under the following replacements: x ! ðxÞ and=or x_ ! ð_xÞ: In the next section, this property is also shown to be approximately satisfied by the numerical solution of the Friedmann equation.

where the factor c is the numerical constant. As is shown in the next section, the trajectory in the x–q plane is described approximately by this equation. (i) The vibrational mode (f = 1; c = +0.5). In the next section, we show that the numerical results satisfy approximately the above relation. The violation of the symmetry may be attributed to the inhomogeneous term (p 5 0) and the non-linear terms ð_x2 and x3 Þ. (ii) The exponential mode (f = 0, +1; c = 0, 0.5). In case of the large value of x, the numerical results satisfy approximately the above relation (q / x3), which are shown in the next section.
3. Numerical results We have analyzed the Friedmann equation with the use of the microsoft EXCEL and obtained the chaotic behaviors for the open universe (f = 1) in Case 1. Following the name of ‘‘the Lorenz Chaos’’ [14] and that of ‘‘the Ro¨ssler Chaos’’ [15], we may call these chaotic behaviors ‘‘the Friedmann chaos’’. 3.1. Results of Case 1 The numerical results of Case 1 are given in Table 3, where only the first 30 lines are shown for convenience. The full length of numerical results is 5994 lines in our calculation. The unit of time (t), space (x) and density (q) is arbitrary. We show the numerical solutions of the Friedmann equation [Case 1] in Figs. 1–3, where the figures are demonstrated in the t–x plane, t–_x plane and t–q plane, respectively, for c = +0.5(f = 1). The other parameters are fixed and given in each figures. These figures show the typical non-linear vibrational modes. Only in case c = +0.5(f = 1), there occurs chaos in the Friedmann equation [Case 1], as far as we use the parameters listed in Table 1. We show the parameter c dependence of solutions in the Friedmann equation [Case 1] in Figs. 4 and 5, where the figures are shown in the x–_x plane and x–q plane for c = +0.5, 0 and 0.5, respectively. The other parameters are fixed and given in each figures. Only in case c = +0.5(f = 1), there occurs chaos in the Friedmann equation [Case 1], as stated before.

Also, we show the chaotic behaviors in the Friedmann equation [Case 1] in Fig. 6 and 7, where the figures are demonstrated in the x–_x plane and the x–q plane for p = 0.28,0.30,0.32 and 0.34, respectively.

The unit of time (t), space (x) and density (q) is arbitrary. We show the numerical solutions of the Friedmann equation [Case 2] in Figs. 8–10, where the figures are demonstrated in the t–x plane, the t–_x plane and the t–q plane, respectively, for c = 1.0(f = 1.0). The other parameters are fixed and given in each figures. These figures show the critical vibrational modes, and there occurs no chaos in Case 2, as far as we use the parameters listed in Table 1. We show the parameter c dependence of solutions in the Friedmann equation [Case 2] in Figs. 11 and 12, where the figures are shown in the x–_x plane and the x–q plane for c = +1.0, 0 and 1.0, respectively. The other parameters are fixed and given in each figures. From these figures, we see that there occurs no chaos in Case 2, even if in case c = +1.0(f = 1.0), as far as we use the parameters listed in Table 1. Also, we show the numerical solutions in the Friedmann equation [Case 2] in Figs. 13 and 14, where the figures are shown in the x–_x plane and the x–q plane for p = 0.28, 0.30, 0.32 and 0.34, respectively.

Fig. 8. The numerical solutions of the Friedmann equation [Case 2]. The figure is shown in the t–x plane for c = +1. The other parameters are fixed and given as follows: a = 1.0, b = 0, d = 0.25, p0 = 0.3 and x0 = 0.5. There occurs no chaos even if c = 1.0 in the Friedmann equation [Case 2].
3.3. Results of Case 3 As discussed in the previous section (Section 2), the results of Case 3 show the exponential mode because of b = 0 and c = 0. The results are trivial and not shown. Needless to say, there occurs no chaos in Case 3.

Fig. 10. The numerical solutions of the Friedmann equation [Case 2]. The figure is shown in thet–q plane for c = +1. The other parameters are fixed and given as follows: a = 1.0, b = 0, d = 0.25, p0 = 0.3 and q0 = 0.2. There occurs no chaos even if c = 1.0 in the Friedmann equation [Case 2].
3.4. Properties of the Friedmann chaos Here, we discuss properties of the Friedmann chaos. (1) The sensitive dependence of solutions on the parameters. From Fig. 4, we see there occurs chaos in case c = +0.5 (f = 1.0). In case c = 0 (f = 0) and c = 0.5 (f = +1.0), there occurs no chaos, as far as we use the parameters listed in Table 1. These facts show that the trajectories in the x–_x plane demonstrate the sensitive dependence on the parameter c. Also, the trajectories in the x–q plane show the sensitive dependence on the parameter c, as in Fig. 5. As is well known, chaotic equations have the sensitive dependence on parameters. (2) The self-similarity of solutions. As demonstrated in Fig. 6, the trajectories in the x–_x plane show the self-similarity, which is the general property of chaotic motions. Also, the trajectories in the x–q plane show the self-similarity, as in Fig. 7. These properties (1) and (2) are general characters of chaotic behaviors and discussed by authors [10–13].
4. Discussions Here, we give some discussions on the related problems.

Fig. 11. The parameter c dependence of solutions of the Friedmann equation [Case 2]. The figures are shown in the x–_x plane for c = +1, 0 and 1.0, respectively. The other parameters are fixed and given as follows: a = 1.0, b = 0, d = 0.25, p0 = 0.3, x0 = 0.5 and x_ 0 ¼ 0:2.
4.1. Computer simulations In Case 2, we have chaotic diagrams, if we change the values of parameters in the Friedmann equation. For example, using the parameter a = 0.3 instead of a = 1.0, we have chaotic behaviors in the x–_x plane and the x–q plane. However, these are not realistic figures but computational simulations, and the figures are not shown here. 4.2. A new theory of space–time structure Recently, El Naschie has studied a new theory of space–time structure on the basis of E infinity theory [16–19]. According to this theory, the Haussdorff dimension of the universe is given as follows: hDimðe1 ÞiH ¼

These relations reflect the self-similarity of the universe. Indeed, as discussed in the previous section, the Friedmann chaos shows the self-similarity in the x–_x plane and the x–q plane (Fig. 6 and 7). E infinity theory is suitable for describing the self-similarity and the hierarchy properties of the universe, such as the mass spectrum of high energy particle physics [17,20]. The fractal dimension of chaotic attractors, such as the Lorenz attractor and the Friedmann attractor may be described well by E infinity theory. This problem will be discussed elsewhere.
5. Summary Finally, we summarize our work as follows. We have studied relativistic equations and chaotic motions of the universe on the basis of general relativity and chaotic dynamics. The Friedmann equation [the space component] shows _ the chaotic behaviors in case of the inflation ðG=G > 0Þ and open (f = 1) universe. In other cases _ ðG=G 5 0; f ¼ 0; f ¼ þ1Þ, there occurs no chaos in the Friedmann equation, as far as we use the parameters listed in Table 1. The Friedmann chaos has following properties: (1) The sensitive dependence of solutions on the parameters. (2) The self-similarity of solutions in the x–_x plane and the x–q plane. These characters are general properties of chaotic behaviors, such as the Lorenz chaos [14] and the Ro¨ssler chaos [15]. Especially, the self-similar characters of these chaos correspond to the mathematical properties of E infinity theory [17,18].
