| SINGULARITY RESOLUTION IN LOOP QUANTUM COSMOLOGY: AN OVERVIEW |
|
In this talk we will discuss some of the recent progress in loop quantum cosmology pertaining to the robustness of singularity resolution in cosmological models. After providing an overview of the approach, we will discuss some new developments which allow us to probe the quantum nature of spacetime more rigorously than before, and the resulting physical implications. |
