Description

I will present a novel mechanism for cosmic acceleration driven by primordial black holes with effective repulsive behavior. Using a new Swiss Cheese cosmological framework, I will discuss four black hole spacetimes—Hayward, Bardeen, Dymnikova, and de Sitter-Schwarzschild—to show that this acceleration emerges naturally from the geometry itself. The results suggest that ultra-light PBHs could drive inflation without requiring an inflaton, while PBHs with larger masses and moderate abundances, slightly before matter-radiation equality, can produce a substantial amount of early dark energy, helping to alleviate the Hubble tension.
