Phys. Rev. D 67, 124023 (2003) [10 pages]Loop quantum cosmology, boundary proposals, and inflationReceived 20 March 2003; published 23 June 2003 The loop quantum cosmology of the closed isotropic model is studied with special emphasis on a comparison with traditional results obtained in the Wheeler-DeWitt approach. This includes the relation of the dynamical initial conditions to boundary conditions such as the no-boundary or the tunneling proposal and a discussion of inflation from quantum cosmology. © 2003 The American Physical Society URL:
