Abstract

Loop quantum cosmology is considered in the inflation era. A slow roll scalar field solution with power law potential is presented in the neighborhood of the transition time, i.e. when the universe enters inflation phase from super-inflation. The compatibility of the model with Planck 2013 data is discussed. The domain of validity of the second and the generalized second laws of thermodynamics for this solution and some other examples is studied.
