Beyond adiabatic approximation in Big Bang Cosmology: hydrodynamics, resurgence and entropy production in the Universe

2016 
We use holography for the ab-initio determination of the non-equilibrium behavior of matter in a Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker Universe. We focus on matter without scale invariance and develop an expansion for the corresponding entropy production in terms of the derivatives of the cosmological scale factor. We show that the resulting series is asymptotic and we discuss its resurgent properties. Finally, we compute the resummed entropy production rate in de Sitter Universe at late times and show that the leading order approximation given by bulk viscosity effects can strongly overestimate/underestimate the rate depending on the microscopic parameters.
