Abstract

We present the canonical and quantum cosmological investigation of a four-dimensional, spatially flat, Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) model that is derived from the bosonic Neveu-Schwarz/Neveu-Schwarz sector of the low-energy M-theory effective action. We discuss in detail the phase space of the classical theory. We find the quantum solutions of the model and obtain the positive norm Hilbert space of states. Finally, the correspondence between wave functions and classical solutions is outlined.
