Hybrid Loop Quantum Cosmology: An Overview [PDF]
Loop Quantum Gravity is a nonperturbative and background independent program for the quantization of General Relativity. Its underlying formalism has been applied successfully to the study of cosmological spacetimes, both to test the principles and ...

Minisuperspace Quantum Cosmology in Metric and Affine Theories of Gravity [PDF]
Minisuperspace Quantum Cosmology is an approach by which it is possible to infer initial conditions for dynamical systems which can suitably represent observable and non-observable universes. Here we discuss theories of gravity which, from various points

Running of the cosmological constant and estimate of its value in quantum general relativity [PDF]
We present the connection between the running of the cosmological constant and the estimate of its value in the resummed quantum gravity (RQG) realization of quantum general relativity. We also address in this way some of the questions that have been raised concerning this latter generalization and application of the original prescription of Feynman ...

Quantum Cosmology: Cosmology directly linked to the Planck Scale in General Relativity Theory and Newton Gravity [PDF]
We will in this paper demonstrate that there is a link between cosmology and the Planck scale. It has in recent years been shown that the Planck length can be found totally independent on \(G\), \(\hbar\) and \(c\) and that a series of cosmological predictions can be predicted only from two constants, namely the Planck length and the speed of gravity ...

Exactly solvable quantum cosmologies from two killing field reductions of general relativity
Abstract An exact and, possibly, general solution to the quantum constraints is given for the sector of general relativity containing cosmological solutions with two space-like, commuting, Killing fields. The dynamics of these model space-times, which are known as Gowdy space-times, is formulated in terms of Ashtekar's new variables. The quantization

One Hundred Years of General Relativity
The aim of this two-volume title is to give a comprehensive review of one hundred years of development of general relativity and its scientific influences. This unique title provides a broad introduction and review to the fascinating and profound subject of general relativity, its historical development, its important theoretical consequences ...

The fate of a quantum-corrected collapsing star in General Relativity [PDF]
We incorporate some corrections inspired by loop quantum gravity into the concept of gravitational collapse and propose a complete model of the dynamic process.

Primordial black holes in loop quantum cosmology: the effect on the threshold [PDF]
Primordial black holes form in the early Universe and constitute one of the most viable candidates for dark matter. The study of their formation process requires the determination of a critical energy density perturbation threshold δc , which in general ...

Observations in quantum cosmology [PDF]
In this review, we focus on whether a canonical quantization of general relativity can produce testable predictions for cosmology. In particular, we examine how this approach can be used to model the evolution of primordial perturbations. This program of

Quantum cosmology in f(Q) theory [PDF]
We use Dirac’s method for the quantization of constrained systems in order to quantize a spatially flat Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker spacetime in the context of f(Q) cosmology.
