The dark universe future and singularities: the account of thermal and quantum effects

Understand

The knowledge of the universe future is of fundamental importance for any advanced civilization.

• We study the future of singular dark universe where thermal effects due to the Hawking radiation on the apparent horizon of the FRW universe are taken in consideration.
• It is shown that dark universe which ends up at finite-time Type I and Type III singularity or infinite-time Little Rip singularity transits to finite-time Type II singularity due to account of thermal effects.
• On the same time, the Type II and IV singular universe does not change its qualitative behavior.
