A MODIFIED OZER-TAHA TYPE COSMOLOGICAL MODEL

A modified version of the Ozer and Taha nonsingular cosmological model is presented on the assumption that the universe's radius is complex if it is regarded as empty, but it contains matter when the radius is real. It also predicts the values: Omega(M) = rho(M)/rho(c) approximat e to 4/3, Omega(v) = rho(v)/rho(c) approximate to 2/3 and Omega- = rho -/rho(c) much less than 1 in the present nonrelativistic era, where rh o(M) matter density, rho(v) = vacuum energy density, rho- = negative e nergy density and rho(c) = critical density.
