Abstract

The cosmological singularity in isotropic minisuperspaces was analyzed using quantum dynamics. Quantum geometry ensured prevention of break down at zero volume; and discrete time steps were used in the evolution. The effects responsible for the removal of classical singularity were seen for small volumes.
