Space Inflation or superluminal concentration.

The large-scale polarization of the CMB suggests a fast expansion of the very early universe faster than light.

Is it a real movement or is it a process appearing with a superluminal velocity ?

In traditional Big Bang is the inflation necessary to escape from a superdense singularity.

In Big Bang scenario after a Big Crunch a concentrated energy occupies a certain volume of the space – it is not a superdense singularity, its Mass=E/c^2 is in a ball with a Radius=2GM/c^2 as in a Black Hole with a flat geometry. This initial energy was much less than today but the concentration and density allows a transformation of the energy into particles/antiparticles with a rest mass.

The process of the transformation was almost in one moment in the whole volume but there were some little differencies. The spaces with a higher density transformed faster and with lower density slower. It was like in a Diesel engine – the air-fuel mixture ignite in the whole cylinder volume and the tiny differencies in time depends on the temperature and composition.
The creation of the particles/antiparticles causes an annihilation according to time differencies. We may see a redshifted gamma radiation as CMBR with its polarisation according to the tiny differencies in time of ignition.
This differencies in a density are naturally in a Big Crunch idea.

In the referenced physicsweb article entitled WMAP data put cosmic inflation to the test, author Gary Hinshaw states:
“According to Einstein's general theory of relativity, the fluctuations produced by inflation are accompanied by variations in the curvature of space-time, which include gravitational waves. Since CMB photons gain or lose energy as they traverse the associated gravitational potential wells, gravitational waves would also contribute to the temperature anisotropy…if inflation occurred at the "grand unification" scale (about 10^15-10^16 GeV), then the gravitational-wave signal could be inferred indirectly from observations of the CMB polarization. Specifically, gravitational waves would instill a unique vortex-like pattern in the polarization…” (emphasis mine).

Does this mean that the universe is twisting as it inflates? It reminds me of the inverse of a fluid going down the drain. Perhaps the evolving universe may properly be described as “spirating.”

In a cosmic crunch if the threshhold of energy of 10^15 to 10^16 gev was reached before all the matter in the collapsing universe was in close enough to the point of ignition to be involved. Would the leftover matter now being pushed out from the big bang ensure a positive universe even if matter anti matter annialation was uniform?

Your question evokes the perspective of a big crunch on the far side of our presently perceived big bang.

This recent depiction of the process of supermassive object formation comes to mind (http://www.universetoday.com/2006/09/27/how-the-really-big-stars-form/). Beyond the event horizon of the local gravitational collapse forms a toroid of perception, representing the collective consciousness of all kindred perceivers.

I can offer no opinion regarding your final question as to the equivalence of matter and anti-matter in producing a so-called positive universe.

This link suggests that so called Black Hole can grows and emits a radiation.
I call it Black Hole like Object. The accretion disc become a part of the Object and may grow.
Our Observable Universe is much larger and receives maximum energy from outside of all directions. That way it expands with a maximum velocity close to speed of light now.

Eremon wrote a link about how Black Hole Like Object may grows.
On a picture we see two jets of the rotating star.
We know that matter moves in opposite direction as antimatter just after creation. That way one of the jets may contain more matter than antimatter.
This process would be in the early Universe when the energy was transformed into a matter.
We observe acceleration of the expansion since 8 billions years and probably since this moment energy is supplied from all directions into our Matter Universe and transformation ends. Our Matter Universe expands because of energy supply from outside. Probably the Antimatter Universe does it similar far away.
