Three-form cosmology and bouncing scenario

Abstract Three-form cosmology refers to a theoretical framework in cosmology that utilizes a three-form field as a model for dark energy (DE) and its effects on the dynamics of the universe. This approach is part of ongoing research aimed at understanding the accelerated expansion of the universe, which has been observed through various astronomical measurements, including supernova observations. In this regard, we first briefly review the three-form cosmological model, emphasizing the fundamental relationships. Next, we study the conditions for creating a bouncing universe scenario in this setup. We show the range of model parameters where bouncing occurs. Additionally, we evaluate some suitable constraints for the model parameters based on observational cosmological parameters.
