We investigate the quantum to classical transition of small inhomogeneous fluctuations in the early Universe using the decoherence functional of Gell-Mann and Hartle. We study two types of coarse graining; one due to coarse graining the value of the scalar field and the other due to summing over an environment. We compare the results with a previous study using an environment and the off-diagonal rule proposed by Zurek. We show that the two methods give different results.

We explore the Klein-Gordon equation in the framework of crypto-Hermitian quantum mechanics. Solutions to common problems with probability interpretation and indefinite inner product of the Klein-Gordon equation are proposed.

A way of constructing mathematically correct quantum geometrodynamics of a closed universe is presented. The resulting theory appears to be gauge-noninvariant and thus consistent with the observation conditions of a closed universe, by that being considerably distinguished from the traditional Wheeler–DeWitt one. For the Bianchi-IX cosmological model it is shown that a normalizable wave function of the universe depends on time, allows the standard probability interpretation and satisfies a gauge-noninvariant dynamical Schrödinger equation. The Wheeler–DeWitt quantum geometrodynamics is represented a singular, BRST-invariant solution to the Schrödinger equation having no property of normalizability.
