Equivalence of the wave function of the universe in the Einstein and Jordan frames

We investigate the question of equivalence between the Einstein and Jordan frames for generic scalar-tensor and $f(R)$ gravity theories in the context of minisuperspace quantum cosmology. We consider, particularly, the minisuperspace of a homogeneous and isotropic universe with the Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker...
