We consider vacuum polarization of a scalar field on the Lie groups with a bi-invariant metric of Robertson-Walker type. Using the method of orbits we found expression for the vacuum expectation values of the energy-momentum tensor of the scalar field which are determined by the representation character of the group. It is shown that Einstein’s equations with the energy-momentum tensor are consistent. As an example, we consider isotropic Bianchi type IX model.

We consider integration Clein–Gordon and Dirac equations in Bianchi IX cosmology model. Using the noncommutative integration method we found the new exact solutions for Taub universe.

Noncommutative integration method for Bianchi IX model is based on the use of the special infinite-dimensional holomorphic representation of the rotation group, which is based on the nondegenerate orbit adjoint representation, and complex polarization of degenerate covector. The matrix elements of the representation of form a complete and orthogonal set and allow you to use the generalized Fourier transform. Casimir operator for rotation group under this transformation becomes constant. And the symmetry operators generated by the Killing vector fields in the linear differential operators of the first order from one dependent variable. Thus, the relativistic wave equation on the rotation group allow non-commutative reduction to ordinary differential equations. In contrast to the well-known method of separation of variables, noncommutative integration method takes into account the non-Abelian algebra of symmetry operators and provides solutions that carry information about the non-commutative symmetry of the task. Such solutions can be useful for measuring the vacuum quantum effects and the calculation of the Green’s functions by the splitting-point method.

The work for the Taub model compared the solutions obtained with the known, which are obtained by separation of variables. It is shown that the non-commutative solutions are expressed in terms of elementary functions, while the known solutions are defined by the Wigner function. And commutative reduced by the Klein–Gordon equation for Taub model coincides with the equation, reduced by separation of variables. A commutative reduced by the Dirac equation is equivalent to the reduced equation obtained by separation of variables.

For the three-axis stabilization of the spacecraft in the orbital coordinate system, including in the indirect equilibrium position, an electrodynamic control method is used based on the simultaneous use of two control torques that affect the dynamics of the spacecraft’s rotational motion in the Earth’s magnetic field (EMF), namely, the Lorentz torque and the torque of magnetic interaction. It is assumed that the spacecraft, equipped with an electric charge with a controlled vector of static moment of charge of the first order and a controlled intrinsic magnetic moment, moves in a Keplerian circular Earth orbit of arbitrary inclination. It was previously shown that combining two control systems, magnetic and Lorentz control, into a single electrodynamic control system (EDCS) makes it possible to successfully solve various problems of controlling the angular motion of spacecraft. Unlike many well-known studies performed for one or another approximate EMF model, this work does not impose restrictions on the accuracy of the EMF approximation. Previous studies have shown the limited capabilities of the EDCS for spacecraft moving in orbits close to the polar ones, due to the presence in this case of such points on the spacecraft trajectory in which it is possible for the lines of action of the geomagnetic induction vector and the spacecraft velocity vector relative to the EMF. Therefore, in this paper, the problem of overcoming these difficulties is posed and solved. A modification of the EDCS is proposed, based, firstly, on optimizing the control of the angular motion of the spacecraft and, secondly, on limiting the maximum value of the modulus of the vector of the center of charge relative to the center of mass of the spacecraft, which must be created during control. A method for selecting parameters for a modified EMF is recommended. The presented results of numerical experiments for spacecraft located in polar and circumpolar orbits not only demonstrate the operability of the proposed modification of the EDCS, but also indicate the possibility of technical implementation of the modified electrodynamic method of three-axis spacecraft stabilization.
