Hořava-Lifshitz Scalar Field Cosmology: Classical and Quantum Viewpoints
In this paper, we study a projectable Hořava-Lifshitz cosmology without the detailed balance condition minimally coupled to a nonlinear self-coupling scalar field.

Relational Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
The application of quantum theory to cosmology raises a number of conceptual questions, such as the role of the quantum-mechanical notion of "observer" or the absence of a time variable in the Wheeler-DeWitt equation.

Noncommutativity in Effective Loop Quantum Cosmology
We construct a noncommutative extension of the Loop Quantum Cosmology effective scheme for the flat FLRW model with a free scalar field via a theta deformation.

The perturbed universe in the deformed algebra approach of Loop Quantum Cosmology
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

The Semiclassical Limit of Loop Quantum Cosmology [PDF]
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.

Polymer Dynamics of Isotropic Universe in Ashtekar and in Volume Variables
We analyze the semiclassical and quantum polymer dynamics of the isotropic Universe in terms of both the standard Ashtekar-Barbero-Immirzi connection and its conjugate momentum and also of the new generalized coordinate conjugate to the Universe volume ...

Quantum Cosmological Relational Model of Shape and Scale in 1-d
Relational particle models are useful toy models for quantum cosmology and the problem of time in quantum general relativity. This paper shows how to extend existing work on concrete examples of relational particle models in 1-d to include a notion of ...
