WebAbstract. Hawking and Hartle interpreted their wave function of the universe as giving the probability for the universe to appear from nothing. However, this is not a correct interpretation, since the normalization presupposes a universe, not nothing. Transition probabilities require a measure on the initial state and a physical result requires ... WebThis wave-function can be interpreted in the context of flux compactification of all spatial dimensions as providing a physical probability distribution on the moduli space of string …
On the Hawking Turok solution to the Open Universe wave function
WebThe wave function of the Universe is a solution to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. As this equation permits infinitely many solutions, selecting the one that corresponds to ... WebApr 14, 2024 · The Hartle–Hawking wave function is known to be the Fourier dual of the Chern–Simons or Kodama state reduced to mini-superspace, using an integration contour covering the whole real line. But since the Chern–Simons state is a solution of the Hamiltonian constraint (with a given ordering), its Fourier dual should provide a solution … chan\u0027s dragon inn

WebDec 1, 2024 · Abstract. It is shown that, for a de Sitter Universe, the Hartle–Hawking (HH) wave function can be obtained in a simple way starting from the Friedmann–Lemaitre–Robertson–Walker (FLRW) line element of cosmological equations. An oscillator having imaginary time is indeed derived starting from the Hamiltonian … WebWe argue that the topological string partition function, which has been known to correspond to a wave-function, can be interpreted as an exact “wave-function of the uni-verse” in … WebNov 1, 2000 · Cosmic wave functions with the Brans-Dicke theory. Using the standard Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin method, the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for the Brans-Dicke theory is solved under three kinds of boundary conditions (proposed by Hartle-Hawking, Vilenkin and Linde, respectively). It is found that, although the gravitational and cosmological … chan\u0027s dragon inn ridgefield nj
