Quantum Origin of a Rotating Universe of the Bianchi IX Type

A closed cosmological model with rotation of the Bianchi IX type is constructed. Λ-term and anisotropic liquid are the sources of gravitational field for the model. A quantum origin of the Universe is examined. The Wheeler — De Witt equation is derived. A tunneling coefficient for the Universe is calculated. It is found for a particular case that the probability of quantum birth of a rotating Universe is higher than for the model without rotation. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 6, pp. 71–75, June, 2005.
