Quantum Reduced Loop Gravity: a realistic Universe

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2015-11-04 v1

Abstract

We describe the quantum flat universe in QRLG in terms of states based at cuboidal graphs with six-valent nodes. We investigate the action of the scalar constraint operator at each node and we construct proper semiclassical states. This allows us to discuss the semiclassical effective dynamics of the quantum universe, which resembles that of LQC. In particular, the regulator is identified with the third root of the inverse number of nodes within each homogeneous patch, while inverse-volume corrections are enhanced.
