On the existence of singularity-free solutions in quartic gravity

arXiv:gr-qc/9401023 · doi:10.1016/0370-2693(94)91192-4

Abstract

We study a general field theory of a scalar field coupled to gravitation through a quadratic Gauss-Bonnet term . We show that, under mild assumptions about the function , the classical solutions in a spatially flat FRW background include singularity - free solutions.
