On the Geometry of No-Boundary Instantons in Loop Quantum Cosmology

On the Geometry of No-Boundary Instantons in Loop Quantum Cosmology

We study the geometry of Euclidean instantons in loop quantum cosmology (LQC) such as those relevant for the no-boundary proposal. Confining ourselves to the simplest case of a cosmological constant in minisuperspace cosmologies, we analyze solutions of the semiclassical (Euclidean) path integral in...
