Critical Evaluation of Common Claims in Loop Quantum Cosmology

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
A large number of models have been analyzed in loop quantum cosmology, using mainly minisuperspace constructions and perturbations. At the same time, general physics principles from effective field theory and covariance have often been ignored.

Lorentzian wormhole in the framework of loop quantum cosmology

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
In this paper, we construct a traversable static Lorentzian wormhole in the effective scenario of Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC), where the field equations are modified due to the ultraviolet (UV) corrections introduced at large space-time curvatures.

Path Integrals and the WKB approximation in Loop Quantum Cosmology

open access: yes, 2010
We follow the Feynman procedure to obtain a path integral formulation of loop quantum cosmology starting from the Hilbert space framework. Quantum geometry effects modify the weight associated with each path so that the effective measure on the space of ...

Loop quantum cosmology and spin foams

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2009
Loop quantum cosmology (LQC) is used to provide concrete evidence in support of the general paradigm underlying spin foam models (SFMs). Specifically, it is shown that: i) the physical inner product in the timeless framework equals the transition amplitude in the deparameterized theory; ii) this quantity admits a %convergent vertex expansion a la SFMs ...

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.

Dynamical behavior of interacting dark energy in loop quantum cosmology

open access: yes, 2010
The dynamical behaviors of interacting dark energy in loop quantum cosmology are discussed in this paper. Based on defining three dimensionless variables, we simplify the equations of the fixed points.

Loop quantum cosmology: Recent progress [PDF]

open access: yesPramana, 2004
Aspects of the full theory of loop quantum gravity can be studied in a simpler context by reducing to symmetric models like cosmological ones. This leads to several applications where loop effects play a significant role when one is sensitive to the quantum regime.
