We study the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for a class of induced gravity models in the minisuperspace approximation. In such models a scalar field nonminimally coupled to gravity determines the effective Newton's constant. For simplicity our…

(from the talk:) I shall here speak on gravity in (1+1)-dimensional space-time --- lineal gravity. The purpose of studying lower dimensional theories, and specifically lower dimensional gravity, is to gain insight into difficult…

The preceding talks given at this conference have dealt mainly with general ideas for, main problems of and techniques for the task of quantizing gravity canonically. Since one of the major motivations to arrange for this meeting was that…

Quantum cosmology based on the Wheeler De Witt equation represents a simple way to implement plausible quantum effects in a gravitational setup. In its minisuperspace version wherein one restricts attention to FLRW metrics with a single…

Wheeler-DeWitt equation is applied to $k > 0$ Friedmann Robertson Walker metric with various types of matter. It is shown that if the Universe ends in the matter dominated era (e.g., radiation or pressureless gas) with zero cosmological…

For a FRW-spacetime coupled to an arbitrary real scalar field, we endow the solution space of the associated Wheeler-DeWitt equation with a Hilbert-space structure, construct the observables, and introduce the physical wave functions of the…

We quantize the interaction of gravity with Yang-Mills and spinor fields, hence offering a quantum theory incorporating all four fundamental forces of nature. Using canonical quantization we obtain solutions of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation…

We canonically quantize the dynamics of the brane universe embedded into the five-dimensional Schwarzschild-anti-deSitter bulk space-time. We show that in the brane-world settings the formulation of the quantum cosmology, including the…

We apply a recent proposal for defining states and observables in quantum gravity to simple models. First, we consider a Klein-Gordon particle in an ex- ternal potential in Minkowski space and compare our proposal to the theory ob- tained…

Quantum gravity is fundamentally different from the non-gravitational quantum field theories in the sense that most of the techniques derived for the latter cannot be easily extended to the former. For example, correlation functions in…

To appear in proceedings of II Workshop on ``Constraints Theory and Quantisation Methods''Montepulciano (Siena) 1993} General discussion of the constraints of 2+1 gravity, with emphasis on two approaches, namely the second order and first…

In these lectures we report recent work on the exact quantization of dimensionally reduced gravity, i.e. 2d non-linear (G/H)-coset space sigma-models coupled to gravity and a dilaton. Using methods developed in the context of flat space…

We consider non-relativistic point-particles coupled to Einstein gravity and their canonical quantization. From the resulting Wheeler-DeWitt wave equation we determine a quantum version of geometrodynamics, where the coupled evolution of…

In this paper we can solve a Wheeler-DeWitt equation of the some inhomogeneous spacetime models as a local solution. From the previous study of up-to-down method we derived the static restriction relating the problem of the time. Although…

The Bohm-de Broglie interpretation of quantum mechanics is applied to canonical quantum cosmology. It is shown that, irrespective of any regularization or choice of factor ordering of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation, the unique relevant quantum…

The Ashtekar formulation of 2+1 gravity differs from the geometrodynamical and Witten descriptions when the 2-metric is degenerate. We study the phase space of 2+1 gravity in the Ashtekar formulation to understand these degenerate solutions…

Taking into account the global one-dimensionality conjecture recently proposed by the author, the Cauchy-like analytical wave functional of the Wheeler-DeWitt theory is derived. The crucial point of the integration strategy is canceling of…

We construct the regularized Wheeler--De Witt operator demanding that the algebra of constraints of quantum gravity is anomaly free. We find that for only a small subset of all wavefunctions being integrals of scalar densities this…

In the analysis of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation, we have simplified the Hamiltonian constraint of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation using the coordinate transformation. The coordinate is choose such that metric becomes diagonal and as Gaussian…

We examine the third quantization of $f(R)$-type gravity, based on its effective Lagrangian in the case of a flat Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker metric. Starting from the effective Lagrangian, we execute a suitable change of variable…
