Abstract
The dynamics of a 3 + 1 dimensional homogeneous anisotropic universe is modified by loop quantum cosmology and consequently it has generically a big bounce in the past instead of a bigbang singularity This modified dynamics can be well described by effective equations of motion We generalise these effective equations of motion empirically to d + 1 dimensions The generalised equations involve two functions and may be considered as a class of LQCinspired models for d + 1 dimensional early universe cosmology As a special case one can now obtain a universe which has neither a big bang singularity nor a big bounce but approaches asymptotically a ‘Hagedorn like’ phase in the past where its density and volume remain constant In a few special cases we also obtain explicit solutions
