000152174 260__ $$c2025
000152174 5203_ $$aWe introduce a large family of homogeneous and isotropic cosmological solutions in quadratic gravity which are singularity-free at early and late times. This kind of smooth solutions only emerge beyond the nonstandard de Sitter branch 3⁢ <,  and  being the couplings of the 2 and −2 ⁢ terms. We have analyzed the stability of these singularity-free solutions by computing the second-order variation of the action. We show that the expected instability is similar to that of the standard Λ Cold Dark Matter (Λ CDM) scenario. Thus, they provide cosmological background scenarios as legitimate as that of the Standard Model. The complete analysis shows that a singular big bang scenario can emerge from a singularity-free cosmological scenario when the parameters of the theory are slightly modified, which provides a bridge between the two very different cosmological scenarios with similar instabilities.
