Abstract

The Regge calculus model of an anisotropic universe with a cosmological constant is studied and the no-boundary wave function is calculated along the steepest descent path based on the classical solution. The wave function has a strong peak at large anisotropy, which predicts that an anisotropic universe is more probably created. © 1996 The American Physical Society.
