Abstract
We construct phase-space structure of a typical higher-order theory of gravity, in the background of anisotropic Bianchi-1 mini-superspace, following ‘modified Horowitz formalism’ as well as applying ‘Dirac algorithm’ (after taking care of the divergent terms), and establish equivalence. Canonical quantization, and semiclassical approximation are performed to expatiate the fact that such a quantum theory transits successfully to a classical de-Sitter Universe. Inflation has thereafter been studied. The numerical values of the inflationary parameters show excellent agreement with the latest released Planck’s data.
