Abstract

The idea of "asymptotically free" gravity is implemented using a constrained mimetic scalar field. The effective gravitational constant is assumed to vanish at some limiting curvature. As a result singularities in contracting spatially flat Friedmann and Kasner universes are avoided. The solutions in both cases approach de Sitter metric with a limiting curvature.We show that quantum metric fluctuations vanish when this limiting curvature is approached.
