Cosmological aspects of the Eisenhart-Duval lift.
A cosmological extension of the Eisenhart-Duval metric is constructed by incorporating a cosmic scale factor and the energy-momentum tensor into the scheme. The dynamics of the spacetime is governed the Ermakov-Milne-Pinney equation. Killing isometries include spatial translations and rotations, Newton--Hooke boosts and translation in the null direction. Geodesic motion in Ermakov-Milne-Pinney cosmoi is analyzed. The derivation of the Ermakov-Lewis invariant, the Friedmann equations and the Dmitriev-Zel'dovich equations within the Eisenhart--Duval framework is presented.

Keeping up-to-date with research can feel impossible, with papers being published faster than you'll ever be able to read them. That's where Researcher comes in: we're simplifying discovery and making important discussions happen. With over 19,000 sources, including peer-reviewed journals, preprints, blogs, universities, podcasts and Live events across 10 research areas, you'll never miss what's important to you. It's like social media, but better. Oh, and we should mention - it's free.
Researcher displays publicly available abstracts and doesn’t host any full article content. If the content is open access, we will direct clicks from the abstracts to the publisher website and display the PDF copy on our platform. Clicks to view the full text will be directed to the publisher website, where only users with subscriptions or access through their institution are able to view the full article.
