In a recent paper1 Euclidean wormhole solution has been obtained with a vacuum Brans–Dicke theory with parameter ω=0. These wormholes suffer from unphysical values of the gravitational constant. One can relate the various known wormholes by means of conformal transformations; although one should not transform them directly to the Einstein frame as the gravitational constant there is "forced" physical: so removing the wormholes. However, by arguing for the existence of a fundamental minimum length scale such wormholes can now be considered as representative of quantum gravitational phenomena. One can also obtain wormholes as solutions of the quantum mechanical Wheeler–De Witt equation; now in Brans–Dicke for any ω>-3/2.

The Euclidean path integral is well approximated by instantons. If instantons are dynamical, they will necessarily be complexified. Fuzzy instantons can have multiple physical applications. In slow-roll inflation models, fuzzy instantons can explain the probability distribution of the initial conditions of the universe. Although the potential shape does not satisfy the slow-roll conditions due to the swampland criteria, the fuzzy instantons can still explain the origin of the universe. If we extend the Euclidean path integral beyond the Hartle–Hawking no-boundary proposal, it becomes possible to examine fuzzy Euclidean wormholes that have multiple physical applications in cosmology and black hole physics.

In this presentation, we first describe the Hartle-Hawking wave function in the Euclidean path integral approach. After we introduce perturbations to the background instanton solution, following the formalism developed by Halliwell-Hawking and Laflamme, one can obtain the scale-invariant power spectrum for small-scales. We further emphasize that the Hartle-Hawking wave function can explain the large-scale power suppression by choosing suitable potential parameters, where this will be a possible window to confirm or falsify models of quantum cosmology. Finally, we further comment on possible future applications, e.g., Euclidean wormholes, which can result in distinct signatures to the power spectrum.

A spontaneous symmetry breaking mechanism is used in quantum gravity to obtain a convergent positive definite density-matrix as the most general quantum state of Euclidean wormholes.
