More solutions for the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in a flat FLRW minisuperspace (2309.02955v2)

Published 5 Sep 2023 in gr-qc, astro-ph.CO, hep-ph, and hep-th

Abstract: This work proposes more solutions for the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in a flat FLRW minisuperspace. We study quantum cosmology in the framework of the de Broglie-Bohm interpretation and investigate the quantum cosmological effects throughout the evolution of the universe. In a particular solution, the tendency for a scalar field to roll down the potential is balanced by the quantum force, and a Minkowski spacetime is obtained.
