Hybrid Loop Quantum Cosmology: An Overview [PDF]
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 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 ...

Thermodynamics in Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2009 Loop quantum cosmology (LQC) is very powerful to deal with the behavior of early universe. Moreover, the effective loop quantum cosmology gives a successful description of the universe in the semiclassical region.

Isotropic Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2002 Isotropic models in loop quantum cosmology allow explicit calculations, thanks largely to a completely known volume spectrum, which is exploited in order to write down the evolution equation in a discrete internal time.

Testing loop quantum cosmology [PDF]
Comptes Rendus. Physique, 2017 Loop quantum cosmology predicts that quantum gravity effects resolve the big-bang singularity and replace it by a cosmic bounce. Furthermore, loop quantum cosmology can also modify the form of primordial cosmological perturbations, for example by ...

Unimodular Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2010 Unimodular gravity is based on a modification of the usual Einstein-Hilbert action that allows one to recover general relativity with a dynamical cosmological constant.

A Brief Introduction to Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2009 In recent years, Loop Quantum Gravity has emerged as a solid candidate for a nonperturbative quantum theory of General Relativity. It is a background independent theory based on a description of the gravitational field in terms of holonomies and fluxes ...

Higher dimensional Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
The European Physical Journal C, 2015 Loop quantum cosmology(LQC) is the symmetric model of loop quantum gravity. In this paper, we generalize the structure of loop quantum cosmology to the theories with arbitrary spacetime dimensions.

The Semiclassical Limit of Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2001 The continuum and semiclassical limits of isotropic, spatially flat loop quantum cosmology are discussed, with an emphasis on the role played by the Barbero-Immirzi parameter \gamma in controlling space-time discreteness.
