Based upon the holographic principle, Jacobson demonstrated that the spacetime can be viewed as a gas of atoms with a related entropy given by the Bekenstein-Hawking formula. Following this argument, Friedmann equations can be derived by using Clausius relation to the apparent horizon of Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe. Loop Quantum Gravity is a propose to description of the spacetime behavior in situations where its atomic characteristic arises. Among these situations, the behavior of our universe near the Big Bang singularity is described by Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC). However, a derivation of the LQC equations based on the Bekenstein bound is lacking. In this work, we obtain the quantum corrected Friedmann equations from the entropy-area relation given by loop quantum black holes (LQBH), setting a still absent connection between holographic and LQC descriptions of the cosmos. Connections with braneworld cosmology have been also addressed.

We study the effects of an information-theoretically motivated nonlinear correction to the Wheeler-deWitt equation in the minisuperspace scheme for flat, $k=0$, Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universes. When the only matter is a cosmological consta
nt, the nonlinearity can provide a barrier that screens the original Big Bang, leading to the quantum creation of a universe through tunneling just as in the $k=1$ case. When the matter is instead a free massless scalar field, the nonlinearity can again prevent a contracting classical universe from reaching zero size by creating a bounce. Our studies here are self-consistent to leading order in perturbation theory for the nonlinear effects.
We make a critical review of the semiclassical interpretation of quantum cosmology and emphasise that it is not necessary to consider that a concept of time emerges only when the gravitational field is (semi)classical. We show that the usual results
of the semiclassical interpretation, and its generalisation known as the Born-Oppenheimer approach to quantum cosmology, can be obtained by gauge fixing, both at the classical and quantum levels. By `gauge fixing we mean a particular choice of the time coordinate, which determines the arbitrary Lagrange multiplier that appears in Hamiltons equations. In the quantum theory, we adopt a tentative definition of the (Klein-Gordon) inner product, which is positive definite for solutions of the quantum constraint equation found via an iterative procedure that corresponds to a weak coupling expansion in powers of the inverse Planck mass. We conclude that the wave function should be interpreted as a state vector for both gravitational and matter degrees of freedom, the dynamics of which is unitary with respect to the chosen inner product and time variable.
I show that a generic quantum phenomenon can drive cosmic acceleration without the need for dark energy or modified gravity. When treating the universe as a quantum system, one typically focuses on the scale factor (of an FRW spacetime) and ignores m
any other degrees of freedom. However, the information capacity of the discarded variables will inevitably change as the universe expands, generating quantum bias (QB) in the Friedmann equations [Phys. Lett. A 382, 36, 2555 (2018)|arXiv:1707.05789]. If information could be stored in each Planck-volume independently, this effect would give rise to a constant acceleration $10^{120}$ times larger than that observed, reproducing the usual cosmological constant problem. However, once information capacity is quantified according to the holographic principle, cosmic acceleration is far smaller and depends on the past behaviour of the scale factor. I calculate this holographic quantum bias, derive the semiclassical Friedmann equations, and obtain their general solution for a spatially-flat universe containing matter and radiation. Comparing these QB-CDM solutions to those of $Lambda$CDM, the new theory is shown to be falsifiable, but nonetheless consistent with current observations. In general, realistic QB cosmologies undergo phantom acceleration ($w_mathrm{eff}<-1$) at late times, predicting a Big Rip in the distant future.
We extend the treatment of quantum cosmology to a manifold with torsion. We adopt a model of Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble compatible with the cosmological principle. The universe wavefunction will be subject to a $mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonian.
With a vanishing energy-momentum tensor, the universe evolution in the semiclassical and classical regimes is shown to reflect a two-stage inflationary process induced by torsion.
We develop a general framework for effective equations of expectation values in quantum cosmology and pose for them the quantum Cauchy problem with no-boundary and tunneling wavefunctions. Cosmological configuration space is decomposed into two secto
rs that give qualitatively different contributions to the radiation currents in effective equations. The field-theoretical sector of inhomogeneous modes is treated by the method of Euclidean effective action, while the quantum mechanical sector of the spatially homogeneous inflaton is handled by the technique of manifest quantum reduction to gauge invariant cosmological perturbations. We apply this framework in the model with a big negative non-minimal coupling, which incorporates a recently proposed low energy (GUT scale) mechanism of the quantum origin of the inflationary Universe and study the effects of the quantum inflaton mode.
