- Abstract: We start by presenting a brief summary of fractional quantum mechanics, as
means to convey a motivation towards fractional quantum cosmology.
Subsequently, such application is made concrete with the assistance of a case
study. Specifically, we investigate and then discuss a model of stiff matter in
a spatially flat homogeneous and isotropic universe. A new quantum cosmological
solution, where fractional calculus implications are explicit, is presented and
then contrasted with the corresponding standard quantum cosmology setting.

We build an explicit quantum operator that can map states describing a quantum field on a superposition of spacetimes to states representing a quantum field with a superposition of masses on a Minkowski background.
It can be used to import the phenomenon of particle production in curved spacetime to its conformally equivalent counterpart, thus revealing new features in modified Minkowski spacetime.

We show how to predict and experimentally observe the emergence of random state ensembles naturally under time-independent Hamiltonian dynamics.
The observed random ensembles emerge from projective measurements and are intimately linked to universal correlations built up between subsystems of a larger quantum system.
Our work has implications for understanding randomness in quantum dynamics, and enables applications of this concept in a wider context.
