In this paper, we will constrain the operator ordering ambiguity of Wheeler-DeWitt equation by analyzing the quantum fluctuations in the universe. This will be done using a third quantized formalism. It is expected that the early stages of…
In this paper, we analyse the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in the third quantized formalism. We will demonstrate that for certain operator ordering, the early stages of the universe are dominated by quantum fluctuations, and the universe becomes…
The Wheeler-DeWitt equation of Friedmann models with a massless quantum field is formulated with arbitrary factor ordering of the Hamiltonian constraint operator. A scalar product of wave functions is constructed, giving rise to a…
In this letter, we discuss the Wheeler-DeWitt equation with an ordering parameter in the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe. The solutions when the universe was very small and at the end of the expansion are obtained in terms of Bessel and…
We consider minisuperspace models with two-derivative kinetic terms, assuming a flat target space and a closed Universe. We show that, upon canonical quantization of the Hamiltonian, only a restricted class of operator orderings is…
Commutator anomalies obstruct solving the Wheeler-DeWitt constraint equation in Dirac quantization of quantum gravity-matter theory. When the obstruction is removed, there result quantal modifications to the constraints. The same classical…
We derive exact series solutions for the Wheeler-DeWitt equation corresponding to a spatially closed Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe with cosmological constant for arbitrary operator ordering of the scale factor of the universe. The…
We demonstrate in the context of the minisuperspace model consisting of a closed Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe coupled to a scalar field that Vilenkin's tunneling wavefunction can only be consistently defined for particular choices of…
We set up the Wheeler-DeWitt (WDW) equation for late gravitational collapse. The fact that the gravitational collapse and the expanding/ collapsing universe can be described within the realm of the Robertson-Walker metric renders the…
The Riemann-zeta function regularization procedure has been studied intensively as a good method in the computation of the determinant for pseudo-diferential operator. In this paper we propose a different approach for the computation of the…
In this paper we study how all the physical "constants" vary in the framework described by a model in which we have taken into account the generalize conservation principle for its stress-energy tensor. This possibility enable us to take…
We discuss how to generalize a Dirac operator such that the solution of a Dirac equation is of bounded variation rather than continuous. We build the spectral theory for generalized Dirac operators and discuss the connection between them…
We present an approximate model of Wheeler-Feynman electrodynamics for which uniqueness of solutions is proved. It is simple enough to be instructive but close enough to Wheeler-Feynman electrodynamics such that we can discuss its natural…
The kinetic energy operator of a quantum particle with position dependent mass and the associated ordering ambiguity is revisited. We introduce a new form of this operator which is a continues or discreet superposition of the acceptable…
In this paper, a simple and unified method is developed that predicts the relativistic alterations of physical measures when the behavior of a natural system is characterized by means of a specific operator equation. Separation of variables…
We study the Dirichlet to Neumann operator of the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann problem, and the relation between the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann boundary conditions and the Dirichlet to Neumann operator.
We develop the idea that, as a result of the arbitrariness of the factor ordering in Wheeler-DeWitt equation, gauge phases can not, in general, being completely removed from the wave functional in quantum gravity. The latter may be…
It may be possible to use operator regularization with Feynman diagrams, which would greatly simplify its use as it has so far been limited to the more complicated Schwinger approach. Operator regularization, unlike $\zeta$-function…
