Inflation, Oscillating Universes and Loop Quantum Cosmology |
Semi-classical Loop Quantum modifications to cosmological evolution equations can have important consequences for the dynamics of the early universe. This talk discusses some of these consequences, including their ability to set the initial conditions for successful inflation and the possibility of a non-singular oscillating emergent universe. |
