The circular loop equation of a cosmic string with time-varying tension

The equation of circular loops of cosmic string with time-dependent tension is studied in the Minkowski spacetime and Robertson-Walker universe. We find that, in the case where the tension depends on some power of the cosmic time, cosmic string loops with time-varying tension should not collapse to form a black hole if the power is lower than a critical value.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures. accepted by Modern Physics Letters

The evolution of cosmic string loops in Kerr-de Sitter spacetimes

The equation of cosmic string loops in Kerr-de Sitter spacetimes is derived. Having solved the equation numerically, we find that the loops can expand and exist except for too small ones.Comment: 8 page
