Constructs an explicit closed FRW curvature-supported bounce-inflation model with a canonical scalar field that remains geodesically complete, NEC-compliant, and yields standard slow-roll predictions.
A no-go theorem proves flat and open FRW universes cannot be nonsingular, geodesically complete and ANEC-consistent while closed universes can, with positive curvature mimicking phantom dark energy at the 1% level.
No-shell FRW daughters matched to asymptotically flat regular black holes are bounded if closed and past-incomplete if flat or open; a regular core alone cannot yield a viable daughter cosmology.
Refines two-field DHOST bouncing model to match observed f_NL and keep strong-coupling scale above background energy, claiming full viability at linear and non-linear levels.

Open case for a closed universe
A no-go theorem proves flat and open FRW universes cannot be nonsingular, geodesically complete and ANEC-consistent while closed universes can, with positive curvature mimicking phantom dark energy at the 1% level.

Obstructions to Minimal Regular Black Hole Cosmologies
No-shell FRW daughters matched to asymptotically flat regular black holes are bounded if closed and past-incomplete if flat or open; a regular core alone cannot yield a viable daughter cosmology.
