Abstract
The quantization of gravity coupled to barotropic perfect fluid matter field with a cosmological constant is carried out. The wave function can be determined for any curvature index κ in the FRW minisuperspace model. The meaning of the existence of the classical solution is discussed in the WKB semiclassical approximation.
