The loop quantization of the negatively curved k=-1 RW model poses several technical challenges. We show that the issues can be overcome and a successful quantization is possible that extends the results of the k=0,+1 models in a natural fashion. We discuss the resulting dynamics and show that for a universe consisting of a massless scalar field, a bounce is predicted in the backward evolution in accordance with the results of the k=0,+1 models. We also show that the model predicts a vacuum repulsion in the high curvature regime that would lead to a bounce even for matter with vanishing energy density. We finally comment on the inverse volume modifications of loop quantum cosmology and show that, as in the k=0 model, the modifications depend sensitively on the introduction of a length scale which a priori is independent of the curvature scale or a matter energy scale.

Quantum Cosmology in Krylov Space: Complexity and Entropy
In a sharply peaked Gaussian state of a flat FLRW universe with a massless scalar clock, Krylov state complexity grows as σ²(φ−φ0)²/4 and operator complexity is exactly twice that, in both Wheeler-DeWitt and loop quan...

Non-uniqueness of the shockwave dynamics in effective loop quantum gravity
In effective loop quantum gravity, an infinite family of mathematically equivalent collapse equations produce different weak solutions after shell crossing, so the predicted black hole lifetime (e.g., M^2, M^3, M^4) i...
