36: 1544:. He added that Alan Guth, one of the co-authors of the theorem, disagrees with Vilenkin and believes that the universe had no beginning. Vilenkin argues that the Carroll-Chen model constructed by Carroll and Jennie Chen, and supported by Guth, to elude the BGV theorem's conclusions persists to indicate a singularity in the history of the universe as it has a reversal of the 1120: 204:, a spacetime is said to be geodesically complete if all its geodesics can be extended indefinitely without encountering any singularities or boundaries. On the contrary, a spacetime that is geodesically past-incomplete features geodesics that reach a boundary or a singularity within a finite amount of 1593:
and are geodesically complete. The authors claim that the geodesic incompleteness of inflationary spacetime is still an open issue. Furthermore, there are examples of infinite cyclic models solving the problem of unbounded entropy growth which are geodesically complete. In both of these studies, the

movement regarding the existence of God. Vilenkin stated "What causes the universe to pop out of nothing? No cause is needed." Regarding the BGV theorem itself, Vilenkin told Craig: "I think you represented what I wrote about the BGV theorem in my papers and to you personally very accurately."
860: 334: 1408: 1252: 1530:. Vilenkin and Audrey Mithani have argued that none of these models escape the implications of the theorem. In 2017, Vilenkin stated that he does not think there are any viable cosmological models that escape the scenario. 1115:{\displaystyle \int _{t_{\rm {i}}}^{t_{\rm {f}}}H(\tau )d\tau =\int _{a(t_{\rm {i}})}^{a(t_{\rm {f}})}{\frac {mda}{\sqrt {m^{2}a^{2}+p^{2}a(t_{\rm {f}})}}}=F(\gamma _{\rm {f}})-F(\gamma _{\rm {i}})\leq F(\gamma _{\rm {f}})} 1460:
Current astronomical observations, show that the universe is expanding, thus the BGV implies that there must be a boundary or singularity in the history of the universe. This singularity has often been associated to the

Some physical theories do not discard the possibility of a non-accelerated expansion before a certain moment in time. For example, the expansion rate could be different from

Alternative models, where the average expansion of the universe throughout its history does not hold, have been proposed under the notions of emergent spacetime,

authors argue that the previous investigations often did not use mathematically precise formulations of the BGV theorem and thus reached incomplete conclusions.
