Stochastic Einstein equations. (English) Zbl 1246.83166

Summary: Stochastic Einstein equations are considered when three-dimensional space metric \(\gamma_{ij}\) are stochastic functions. The probability density for the stochastic quantities is connected with Perelman’s entropy functional. As an example, the Friedman Universe is considered. It is shown that for the Friedman Universe the dynamical evolution is not changed. The connection between general relativity and Ricci flow is discussed.
