Wave Functions for Quantized Volume of the Universe

Authors: Ovidiu Racorean

For a simple closed FRW minisuperspace model the Wheeler-DeWitt equation is arranged in the form of a dimensionless quantum harmonic oscillator like equation. Solving this equation is trivial and give equally spaced quantized levels for the volume of the universe and the set of wave functions for this bound states of the Universe. A series of philosophical implications of the above scenario, like quantum jumps, impossibility of an inflationary phase and the problem of “absence” of time for the quantum Universe are further briefly discussed.
