Resumo: | The observed value of the cosmological constant poses large theoretical problems. We find that topology of the Universe provides a natural source for it. Restricting dynamically an Einstein–Cartan gravity to General Relativity in our observed Universe allows topological invariants to induce an effective cosmological constant from dynamical quintessence-like topological fields. Its evaluation through the boundary of black holes yields a range compatible with the observed value, with uncertainty of three orders of magnitude. In turns, it provides a measurement of the Universe's isoperimetric constant. As in other dark energy studies, quantum vacuum energy corrections are left for quantum gravity studies to explain away. |
