Eisenhart--Duval lift for minisuperspace quantum cosmology

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2021-10-06 v5

Abstract

We study covariant equations in quantum cosmology of an extended minisuperspace obtained by the Eisenhart--Duval lift. We find that a Dirac-type equation is naturally introduced in the extended minisuperspace. Explicit forms of the fundamental solutions are yielded for specific models. The possible further development in this direction is also discussed.
