Loop Quantum Cosmology
Applies loop quantum gravity to cosmology, suggesting the Big Bang was actually a “Big Bounce” from a prior contracting universe rather than a true beginning.
Proponents
Abhay Ashtekar, Martin Bojowald
Evidence For
Resolves the singularity problem at the Big Bang mathematically by quantizing spacetime itself.
Evidence Against
Loop quantum gravity as a whole remains unconfirmed and has yet to be reconciled fully with the Standard Model.
