Friedmann bounce for pressureless matter and positive cosmological constant
= Friedmann bounce for pressureless matter and positive cosmological constant
{c}
When the energy line $-k$ lies below the maximum of the pressureless-matter effective potential, its large-$a$ allowed region is separated from the Big-Bang region. A contracting large universe reaches the outer turning point at positive scale factor and re-expands, producing a nonsingular bounce.
