INFLATIONARY COSMOLOGY AND OSCILLATING UNIVERSES IN LOOP QUANTUM COSMOLOGY [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2005 We study oscillatory universes within the context of Loop Quantum Cosmology. We make a comparative study of flat and positively curved universes sourced by scalar fields with either positive or negative potentials. We investigate how oscillating universes can set the initial conditions for successful slow-roll inflation, while ensuring that the semi ...

Loop quantum gravity and cosmological constant
Physics Letters B, 2021 A one-parameter regularization freedom of the Hamiltonian constraint for loop quantum gravity is analyzed. The corresponding spatially flat, homogenous and isotropic model includes the two well-known models of loop quantum cosmology as special cases. The

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019 Mimetic gravity can be described as a formulation capable of mimicking different evolutionary scenarios regarding the universe dynamics. Notwithstanding its initial aim of producing a similar evolution to the one expected from the dark components of the ...

The perturbed universe in the deformed algebra approach of Loop Quantum Cosmology
, 2016 Loop quantum cosmology is a tentative approach to model the universe down to the Planck era where quantum gravity settings are needed. The quantization of the universe as a dynamical space-time is inspired by Loop Quantum Gravity ideas. In addition, loop

Inflationary Cosmology and Quantization Ambiguities in Semi-Classical Loop Quantum Gravity [PDF]
, 2004 In loop quantum gravity, modifications to the geometrical density cause a self-interacting scalar field to accelerate away from a minimum of its potential.

ON THE SEMICLASSICAL LIMIT OF LOOP QUANTUM COSMOLOGY
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2012 We consider a k = 0 Friedman–Robertson–Walker (FRW) model within loop quantum cosmology (LQC) and explore the issue of its semiclassical limit. The model is exactly solvable and allows us to construct analytical (Gaussian) coherent-state solutions for each point on the space of classical states.

Quantum reduced loop gravity and the foundation of loop quantum cosmology [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2016 Quantum reduced loop gravity is a promising framework for linking loop quantum gravity and the effective semiclassical dynamics of loop quantum cosmology. We review its basic achievements and its main perspectives, outlining how it provides a quantum description of the Universe in terms of a cuboidal graph which constitutes the proper framework for ...

Generic absence of strong singularities and geodesic completeness in modified loop quantum cosmologies [PDF]
, 2019 Different regularizations of the Hamiltonian constraint in loop quantum cosmology yield modified loop quantum cosmologies, namely mLQC-I and mLQC-II, which lead to qualitatively different Planck scale physics.

Effective Field Theory of Loop Quantum Cosmology
Universe, 2019 Quantum cosmology is traditionally formulated in a minisuperspace setting, implicitly averaging fields over space to obtain homogeneous models. For universal reasons related to the uncertainty principle, quantum corrections then depend on the size of the
