Non-Gaussian features from the inverse volume corrections in loop quantum cosmology

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we study the non-Gaussian features of the primordial fluctuations in loop quantum cosmology with the inverse volume corrections. The detailed analysis is performed in the single field slow-roll inflationary models.

Enemies: uneasy accompaniments in late life Ennemis : accompagnements de fin de vie difficiles

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 31, Issue S1, Page 128-144, April 2025.
Against a phenomenological orientation to ageing as path or course, a contrastive frame is offered around a figure termed the enemy. Four distinctive ethnographic fragments are utilized: (1) a Polish‐Jewish migrant to Canada in her late eighties who listens continually to the radio and worries over the malign forces in the world that the radio ...

Quantum cosmology from quantum gravity condensates: cosmological variables and lattice-refined dynamics

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
In the context of group field theory condensate cosmology, we clarify the extraction of cosmological variables from the microscopic quantum gravity degrees of freedom.

Gravity's rainbow: A bridge between LQC and DSR

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2017
The doubly special relativity (DSR) theories are constructed in order to take into account an observer-independent length scale in special relativity framework. Gravity's rainbow is a simple generalization of DSR theories to incorporate gravity.

Effective actions for loop quantum cosmology in fourth-order gravity

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021
Loop quantum cosmology (LQC) is a theory which renders the Big Bang initial singularity into a quantum bounce, by means of short-range repulsive quantum effects at the Planck scale.

Gravitational wave generation in loop quantum cosmology

open access: yes, 2011
We calculate the full spectrum, as observed today, of the cosmological gravitational waves generated within a model based on loop quantum cosmology. It is assumed that the universe, after the transition to the classical regime, undergoes a period of ...

Dreaming Ubuntu: Jungian Studies, Forgiveness, and Jung’s Recalcitrant Fourth

open access: yesJournal of Analytical Psychology, Volume 70, Issue 2, Page 235-256, April 2025.
Abstract Jung’s recalcitrant fourth comes in from a place of opposition, demanding that what has been neglected be considered. It is in the spirit of the fourth that the author examines the use of Ubuntu in Jungian literature, cautioning against a decontextualized appropriation of the notion that overlooks its diverse interpretations and usages ...

From the conformal anomaly to the Virasoro algebra

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The conformal anomaly and the Virasoro algebra are fundamental aspects of two‐dimensional conformal field theory and conformally covariant models in planar random geometry. In this article, we explicitly derive the Virasoro algebra from an axiomatization of the conformal anomaly in terms of real determinant lines, one‐dimensional vector spaces

Euler–Heisenberg Black Hole Surrounded by Quintessence in the Background of Perfect Fluid Dark Matter: Thermodynamics, Shadows, and Quasinormal Modes

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Current observations show that a significant fraction of the Universe is composed of dark energy and dark matter. In this paper, the simultaneous effects of these dark sectors on the Euler–Heisenberg black hole are investigated, using the quintessence matter field and perfect fluid to model them. In particular, the black hole's thermodynamics,

Dynamical coherent states and physical solutions of quantum cosmological bounces

open access: yes, 2007
A new model is studied which describes the quantum behavior of transitions through an isotropic quantum cosmological bounce in loop quantum cosmology sourced by a free and massless scalar field.
