Problem 1.

Derive $\rho(t)$ in a spatially open Universe filled with dust for the epoch when the curvature term in the first Friedman equation is dominating.


Problem 2.

Show that in the early Universe the curvature term is negligibly small.


Problem 3.

Show that $k =\text{sign}(\Omega-1)$ and express the current value of the scale factor $a_{0}$ through the observed quantities $\Omega_{0}$ and $H_{0}$.


Problem 4.

Find the lower bound for $a_{0}$, knowing that the Cosmic background (CMB) data combined with SSNIa data imply \[-0.0178<(1-\Omega)<0.0063.\]


Problem 5.

Fnd the time dependence of $\left|\Omega-1\right|$ in a Universe with domination of \begin{description} \item[a)] radiation, \item[b)] matter. \end{description}


Problem 6.

Estimate the upper bound of the curvature term in the first Friedman equation during the electroweak epoch ($t\sim 10^{-10}$~s) and the nucleosynthesis epoch ($t\sim 1-200$~s).


Problem 7.

Derive and analyze the conditions of accelerated expansion for a one-component Universe of arbitrary curvature with the component's state parameter S.Kumar arXiv: 1109.6924 $w$.
