The authors' main claim The method seems to have great power, since it works for closed, flat or open space-time, for scalar fields with both standard and tachyonic dynamics.

We present a general procedure to solve the equations of motion for cosmological models driven by real scalar fields with first-order differential equations. The method seems to have great power, since it works for closed, flat or open space-time, for scalar fields with both standard and tachyonic dynamics. We illustrate the procedure solving several examples which model situations of current interest to modern cosmology.

Original abstract
We present a general procedure to solve the equations of motion for cosmological models driven by real scalar fields with first-order differential equations. The method seems to have great power, since it works for closed, flat or open space-time, for scalar fields with both standard and tachyonic dynamics. We illustrate the procedure solving several examples which model situations of current interest to modern cosmology.

To solve these equations, we introduce the following first-order formalism[This is a multi-field generalization of the first-order formalism in Ref. [ref] , where the authors first established the same first-order formalism for cosmological models with a single scalar.]: [equation] where $α>0$ is a positive parameter, $W$ and $Z$ are functions of ${ϕ^I}$, and are called as the superpotentials.
