Abstract

We show that several integrable (i.e., exactly solvable) scalar cosmologies considered by Fr\'e, Sagnotti and Sorin (Nuclear Physics \textbf{B 877}(3) (2013), 1028--1106) can be generalized to include cases where the spatial curvature is not zero and, besides a scalar field, matter or radiation are present with an equation of state p(m)=wρ(m)p^{(m)} = w\, \rho^{(m)}; depending on the specific form of the self-interaction potential for the field, the constant ww can be arbitrary or must be fixed suitably.
