A Bi-Directional Big Bang / Crunch Universe within a Two-State-Vector Quantum Mechanics?

TL;DR

This paper explores a two-boundary quantum mechanics model that describes a universe with a big bang and big crunch, examining its consistency with macroscopic physics and potential experimental validation.

Contribution

It introduces a novel two-boundary quantum framework for a cyclic universe, integrating big bang and big crunch scenarios within a two-state-vector formalism.

Findings

Proposes a consistent model of a cyclic universe within two-boundary quantum mechanics.

Analyzes how a-causal quantum models can align with macroscopic observations.

Discusses potential experimental tests for the proposed universe model.

Abstract

A two boundary quantum mechanics incorporating a big bang / big crunch universe is carefully considered. After a short motivation of the concept we address the central question how a proposed a-causal quantum universe can be consistent with what is known about macroscopia and how it might find experimental support.
