Recent results have shown how quantum cosmology models can be derived from the effective dynamics of condensate states in group field theory (GFT), where ‘cosmology is the hydrodynamics of quantum gravity’: the classical Friedmann dynamics for homoge...

Quantum cosmology from group field theory condensates: a review (2016)
Journal Article

We give, in some detail, a critical overview over recent work towards deriving a cosmological phenomenology from the fundamental quantum dynamics of group field theory (GFT), based on the picture of a macroscopic universe as a “condensate” of a large...

Perfect quantum cosmological bounce (2016)
Journal Article
Gielen, S., & Turok, N. (2016). Perfect quantum cosmological bounce. Physical Review Letters, 117(2), Article 021301. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.117.021301

We study quantum cosmology with conformal matter comprising a perfect radiation fluid and a number of conformally coupled scalar fields. Focusing initially on the collective coordinates (minisuperspace) associated with homogeneous, isotropic backgrou... Read More about Perfect quantum cosmological bounce.
