In summary, the DeSitter Universe is a cosmological model that can be described by the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) metric, or more specifically the Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) model. This model involves the Einstein field equations and describes a homogeneous and isotropic universe with matter and a positive cosmological constant. However, there are also models that describe an inhomogeneous and anisotropic very early universe with primordial density fluctuations. These models include the Anti-DeSitter (ADS) model, which is based on string theory and has a corresponding Anti-DeSitter/Conformal Field Theory (ADS/CFT) correspondence.

Q1
What Einstein model currently describes a Homogeneous and Isotropic approximated Universe with Matter with positive Lambda, is it still Friedmann (FLRW) or have models moved on

Which Einstein model describes an Inhomogeneous and Anisotropic very early universe with primordial density fluctuations

Its still the FLRW metric or more specifically the LCDM model, [itex]\Lambda[/itex]CDM. Which also involves the Eintein field equations..
as far as the De-sitter universe usages you will probably be interested in this article.

also a string theory model variant uses ADS.
ADS/CFT Anti-Desitter correspondance I'm not too familiar with how this model works yet to supply any details.

Thanks for that Mordred, a few pages in and already intrigued by some of the astronomical exponentials being put forward
 

Related to DeSitter and AntiDeSitter Universe

1. What is the DeSitter Universe?

The DeSitter Universe is a mathematical solution to Einstein's equations of general relativity, which describes the expansion of the universe. It is a hypothetical universe that is homogeneous and isotropic, meaning it appears the same from any point in space and in any direction.

2. How does the DeSitter Universe differ from our own universe?

The DeSitter Universe differs from our own universe in that it has a constant positive cosmological constant, which drives the accelerated expansion of the universe. In our universe, the expansion is slowing down due to the gravitational pull of matter and dark energy.

3. What is the AntiDeSitter Universe?

The AntiDeSitter Universe is also a solution to Einstein's equations of general relativity, but it has a negative cosmological constant. This results in a universe that is contracting instead of expanding, and it is often used as a theoretical model for a Big Crunch scenario.

4. How do these universes relate to string theory?

In string theory, the DeSitter and AntiDeSitter universes are important because they are spaces with constant curvature, which is a key feature for certain theories in string theory. These universes also have a special symmetry known as conformal symmetry, which is crucial in the holographic principle.

5. Can we observe or visit the DeSitter or AntiDeSitter Universe?

As these universes are purely theoretical constructs, we cannot observe or visit them in the traditional sense. However, some scientists believe that the DeSitter Universe may have existed during the early stages of our universe's inflationary period, and there are ongoing studies and experiments to better understand these universes and their implications for our own universe.
