Tomography of quantum states of the universe and cosmological dynamics

2006 
It has been proven that conventional quantum mechanics can be reformulated without using the concept of wave function or matrix density. Quantum states can be described in terms of a standard positive probability distribution. Such probability distributions (tomograms) satisfy classical-like equations, which substitute the Schr?dinger equation. We consider quantum cosmology in the probability distribution approach. We derive the tomogram corresponding to theWheeler-de Witt equation. We also use the circumstance that cosmological evolution equations for a homogeneous and isotropic universe can be converted into very simple classical equations to derive a quantum cosmological model which links the tomogram reconstructed from observations to the initial conditions of the universe.
