| Description | Friedmann mdels with positive, negative and zero curvature were quantized in the standard manner. It was shown that the postulated existence of an inner product in the space of quantum states restricts the possible factor orderings of the basic operators. The dependence on the factor ordering of the minimal energy, accessible in the ground state of the models, was calculated. |
