When can we compute analytically lookback time, age of the universe, and luminosity distance?

Abstract

In Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker cosmology, it is sometimes possible to compute analytically lookback time, age of the universe, and luminosity distance versus redshift, expressing them in terms of a finite number of elementary functions. We classify these situations using the Chebyshev theorem of integration and providing examples.
