Quantum Horava-Lifshitz cosmology in the de Broglie-Bohm interpretation
Abstract
Classical and quantum Friedmann-Lema\itre-Robertson-Walker universes filled with non-interacting radiation and dust fluids are considered in the framework of Horava-Lifshitz gravity theory. The Horava-Lifshitz theory is set in its projectable version and without detailed balance condition. Canonical quantization is performed in the Wheeler-DeWitt approach of quantum cosmology for a minisuperspace model in the light of de Broglie-Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics. The main results are analytical solutions for non-singular quantum bounce and cyclic universes for open and closed spatial sections in terms of the parameters of Horava-Lifshitz theory.
