Mixmaster universe: semiclassical dynamics and inflation from bouncing

Abstract

In this work we explore the quantum Bianchi type IX-model, its semi-classical features, and its relevance in early cosmology to tentatively explain inflation and production of primordial structures. We specially focus on the analytical and numerical exploration of the dynamical system derived from the phase-space portraits. Afterwards we investigate the reliability of our results with regard to inflation and post inflation scenarii commonly accepted nowadays.
