Physical Aspects of Unitary evolution of Bianchi-I Quantum Cosmological Model
Abstract
In this work, we study some physical aspects of unitary evolution of Bianchi-I model. In particular, we study the behavior of the volume and the scale factor as a function of time for the Bianchi-I universe with ultra-relativistic fluid (). The expectation value of volume is shown not to hit any singularity. We elucidate on the anisotropic nature of the solution and physically interpret the wavefunction as a superposition of collapsing universe and expanding universe mimicking Hartle-Hawking type wavefunction. The same analysis has been done for as well. The work also comments on how to obtain Vilenkin type wavefunction representing an expanding universe without that being superposed with a solution representing a collapsing universe. We also point at a possible phase transition phenomenon for case with existence of a critical parameter.
