Emergence of a classical Universe from quantum gravity and cosmology

I describe how we can understand the classical appearance of our world from a universal quantum theory. The essential ingredient is the process of decoherence. I start with a general discussion in ordinary quantum theory and then turn to quantum gravity and quantum cosmology. There is a whole hierarchy of classicality from the global gravitational field to the fluctuations in the cosmic microwa...

Cosmology with minimal length uncertainty relations

We study the effects of the existence of a minimal observable length in the phase space of classical and quantum de Sitter (dS) and Anti de Sitter (AdS) cosmology. Since this length has been suggested in quantum gravity and string theory, its effects in the early universe might be expected. Adopting the existence of such a minimum length results in the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP), w...

p-Adic and Adelic Cosmology: p-Adic Origin of Dark Energy and Dark Matter

A brief review of p-adic and adelic cosmology is presented. In particular, p-adic and adelic aspects of gravity, classical cosmology, quantum mechanics, quantum cosmology and the wave function of the universe are considered. p-Adic worlds made of p-adic matters, which are different from real world of ordinary matter, are introduced. Real world and p-adic worlds make the universe as a whole. p-A...

Quantum Cosmology ∗

Synopsis: Quantum cosmology in general denotes the application of quantum physics to the whole universe and thus gives rise to many realizations and examples, covering problems at different mathematical and conceptual levels. It is related to quantum gravity and more specifically describes the application to cosmological situations rather than the construction and analysis of quantum field equa...
