The Decoherence and Interference of Cosmological Arrows of Time for a de Sitter Universe with Quantum Fluctuations

We consider the superposition of two semiclassical solutions of the Wheeler–DeWitt equation for a de Sitter universe, describing a quantized scalar vacuum propagating in a universe that is contracting in one case and expanding in the other, each identifying the opposite cosmological arrow...
