Quintessence field is a widely-studied candidate of dark energy. There is "tracker solution" in quintessence models, in which evolution of the field $\phi$ at present times is not sensitive to its initial conditions. When the energy density…

We found non singular solutions for universes filled with a fluid which obey a Generalized Equation of State of the form $P(\rho)=-A\rho+\gamma\rho^{\lambda}$. An emergent universe is obtained if $A=1$ and $\lambda =1/2$. If the matter…
