No open or flat bouncing cosmologies in Einstein gravity [PDF]
We show that bouncing open or flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmologies are inconsistent with worldsheet string theory to first approximation. Specifically, the Virasoro constraint translates to the null energy condition in spacetime at leading order in the alpha-prime expansion.

Analytical Fit to the Luminosity Distance for Flat Cosmologies with a Cosmological Constant [PDF]
We present a fitting formula for the luminosity and angular diameter distances in cosmological models with pressureless matter, a cosmological constant, and zero spatial curvature. The formula has a relative error of less than 0.4% for 0.2 < Ω0 < 1 for any redshift and a global relative error of less than 4% for any choice of parameters.

Islands in flat-space cosmology [PDF]
Flat-space cosmologies (FSC) are solutions to three dimensional theories of gravity without cosmological constant that have cosmological horizons. A detector located near the time-like singularity of the spacetime can absorb Hawking modes that are created near the horizon.

The Massive Flat Space Limit of Cosmological Correlators [PDF]
Abstract Identifying useful flat-space limits for cosmological correlators, where they can be expressed in terms of observables in Minkowski space is nontrivial due to their scale-invariant nature. In recent years, it has been shown that momentum-space correlators encode flat-space amplitudes at specific singularities that emerge ...

Classical and Quantum Wormholes in a Flat Λ-Decaying Cosmology [PDF]
We study the classical and quantum wormholes for a flat {\it Euclidean} Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metric with a perfect fluid including an ordinary matter source plus a source playing the role of dark energy (decaying cosmological term). It is shown that classical wormholes exist for this model and the quantum version of such wormholes are consistent ...

Exact Solution for Flat Scale-Invariant Cosmology [PDF]
An exact solution for the spatially flat scale-invariant cosmology, recently proposed by Maeder (2017a) is deduced. No deviation from the numerical solution was detected. The exact solution yields transparency for the dynamical equations, and faster cosmological constraints may be performed.

A Lognormal Luminosity Function for SWIRE in Flat Cosmology
The evaluation of the physical parameters or effects such as the luminosity function (LF) or the photometric maximum (PM) for galaxies is routinely modeled by their spectroscopic redshift. Here, we model LF and PM for galaxies by the photometric redshift as given by the Spitzer Wide-Area Infrared Extragalactic (SWIRE) catalog in the framework of a ...

Holography of 3D Flat Cosmological Horizons [PDF]
We provide a first derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of 3d flat cosmological horizons in terms of the counting of states in a dual field theory. These horizons appear in the shifted-boost orbifold of R^{1,2}, the flat limit of non-extremal rotating BTZ black holes.

An Analytical Approximation of the Luminosity Distance in Flat Cosmologies with a Cosmological Constant [PDF]
We present an analytical approximation formula for the luminosity distance in spatially flat cosmologies with dust and a cosmological constant. Apart from the overall factor, the effect of non-zero cosmological constant in our formula is written simply in terms of a rational function.
