Some exact results on quantum Newtonian cosmology

We obtain the wave functions associated with the quantum Newtonian universe with a cosmological constant which is described by the Schrodinger equation and discuss some aspects of its dynamics for all forms of energy density, namely, matter, radiation, vacuum, dark energy, and quintessence. These wave functions of the quantum Newtonian universe are obtained in terms of Heun's functions and the respective energy levels are shown. We use these solutions to investigate the expansion of the universe and found that the asymptotic behavior for the scale factor is R similar to e(t) for whatever the form of energy density is. We also analyze the behavior of the universe at early stages. Publishedunder license by AIP Publishing.
