Claims

C1strongest claim

Our results indicate that Planck data alone cannot favor one model with respect to the other, showing that the model we investigate can be a viable alternative to inflation.

C2weakest assumption

The quantum bounce and the late-time dark-energy behavior of the scalar field can be described by classical equations whose predictions are directly comparable to CMB data without additional quantum corrections or unknown post-bounce evolution.

C3one line summary

A matter bounce model driven by a scalar field with exponential potential fits Planck 2018 CMB data comparably to inflationary ΛCDM, with the potential slope λ directly setting the scalar spectral index ns.
