We investigate the gravitational particle production in the bounce phase of Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC). We perform both analytical and numerical analysis of the particle production process in a LQC scenario with Bunch-Davies vacuum initial condition in the contracting phase. We obtain that if we extend the validity of the dressed metric approach beyond the limit of small backreaction in which it is well justified, this process would lead to a radiation dominated phase in the pre-inflationary phase of LQC. Our results indicate that the test field approximation, which is required in the truncation scheme used in the dressed metric approach, might not be a valid assumption in a LQC scenario with such initial conditions.

We derive the primordial power spectra and spectral indexes of the density fluctuations and gravitational waves in the framework of loop quantum cosmology (LQC) with holonomy and inverse-volume corrections, by using the uniform asymptotic approximati
on method to its third-order, at which the upper error bounds are $lesssim 0.15%$, and accurate enough for the current and forthcoming cosmological observations. Then, using the Planck, BAO and SN data we obtain the tightest constraints on quantum gravitational effects from LQC corrections, and find that such effects could be well within the detection of the current and forthcoming cosmological observations.
Warm inflation is analyzed in the context of Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC). The bounce in LQC provides a mean through which a Liouville measure can be defined, which has been used previously to characterize the a priori probability for inflation in LQ
C. Here we take advantage of the tools provided by LQC to study instead the a priori probability for warm inflation dynamics in the context of a monomial quartic inflaton potential. We study not only the question of how a general warm inflation dynamics can be realized in LQC with an appropriate number of e-folds, but also how such dynamics is constrained to be in agreement with the latest cosmic microwave background radiation from Planck. The fraction of warm inflation trajectories in LQC that gives both the required minimum amount e-folds of expansion and also passes through the observational window of allowed values for the tensor-to-scalar ratio and the spectral tilt is explicitly obtained. We find that the probability of warm inflation with a monomial quartic potential in LQC is higher than that of cold inflation in the same context. Furthermore, we also obtain that the a priori probability gets higher as the inherent dissipation of the warm inflation dynamics increases.
With the observational advance in recent years, primordial gravitational waves (GWs), known as the tensor-mode cosmic perturbations, in the Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC) are becoming testable and thus require better framework through which to bridge b
etween the observations and the theories. In this work we present a new formalism that employs the transfer functions to bring the GWs from any epoch, even before the quantum bounce, to a later time, including the present. The evolutionary epochs considered here include the possible deflation, quantum bounce, and inflation. This formalism enables us to predict more accurately the GW power spectrum today. With the ADM formalism for the LQC background dynamics, our approach is equivalent to the commonly used Bogoliubov transformations for evolving the primordial GWs, but more transparent for discussions and easier to calculate due to its nature of being linear algebra dealing with linear perturbations. We utilize this advantage to have resolved the IR suppression problem. We also propose the field-free approximation for the effective mass in the quantum bounce epoch to largely improve the accuracy in the predicted GW power spectrum. Our transfer-function formalism is general in dealing with any linear problems, and thus expected to be equally useful under other context with linearity.
In this paper, we study the dynamics of k-essence in loop quantum cosmology (LQC). The study indicates that the loop quantum gravity (LQG) effect plays a key role only in the early epoch of the universe and is diluted at the later stage. The fixed po
ints in LQC are basically consistent with that in standard Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmology. For most of the attractor solutions, the stability conditions in LQC are in agreement with that for the standard FRW universe. But for some special fixed point, more tighter constraints are imposed thanks to the LQG effect.
Loop quantum cosmology (LQC) provides promising resolutions to the trans-Planckian issue and initial singularity arising in the inflationary models of general relativity. In general, due to different quantization approaches, LQC involves two types of
quantum corrections, the holonomy and inverse-volume, to both of the cosmological background evolution and perturbations. In this paper, using {em the third-order uniform asymptotic approximations}, we derive explicitly the observational quantities of the slow-roll inflation in the framework of LQC with these quantum corrections. We calculate the power spectra, spectral indices, and running of the spectral indices for both scalar and tensor perturbations, whereby the tensor-to-scalar ratio is obtained. We expand all the observables at the time when the inflationary mode crosses the Hubble horizon. As the upper error bounds for the uniform asymptotic approximation at the third-order are $lesssim 0.15%$, these results represent the most accurate results obtained so far in the literature. It is also shown that with the inverse-volume corrections, both scalar and tensor spectra exhibit a deviation from the usual shape at large scales. Then, using the Planck, BAO and SN data we obtain new constraints on quantum gravitational effects from LQC corrections, and find that such effects could be within the detection of the forthcoming experiments.
