- Abstract: A theory of the initial state of the universe is proposed within the
framework of the Euclidean quantum theory of gravity. The theory is based on a
quantum representation in which the action functional is implemented as an
operator on the space of wave functionals depending on the 4D space metric and
matter fields. The initial construction object is the eigenvalue of the action
operator in the area of the Origin of the universe with the given values of the
3D metric and matter fields on the boundary. The wave function of the initial
state is plotted as an exponential of this eigenvalue, after a Wick rotation in
the complex plane of the radial variable of the Euclidean 4D space. An estimate
of the initial radius of the universe is proposed.

It is based on the simultaneous existence of two wave functions in the laboratory reference frame.
The external wave function corresponds to a field that pilots the center-of-mass of the quantum system.
The internal wave function corresponds to the interpretation proposed by Edwin Schr"odinger.

The mass of the universe is a distribution of non-zero values of gravitational constraints.
A formulation of the Euclidean quantum theory of gravity is also proposed to determine the initial state.
Being unrelated to ordinary matter, the distribution of its own mass affects the geometry of space.
