Age of a flat matter-Lambda universe

ID: age-of-a-flat-matter-lambda-universe

For positive pressureless matter density, positive cosmological constant, negligible radiation and zero curvature, the Friedmann equation gives . Substituting gives the displayed age of an FLRW universe measured from . Its zero-vacuum limit is ; the pure positive-vacuum flat patch has no finite big-bang age.
