Cosmic curvature from de Sitter equilibrium cosmology
  I show that the de Sitter Equilibrium cosmology generically predicts
observable levels of curvature in the Universe today. The predicted value of
the curvature depends only on the ratio of the density of non-relativistic
matter to energy density in cosmological constant, and the value of the
curvature from the initial bubble that starts the inflation. The result is
independent of the scale of inflation, the shape of the potential during
inflation, and many other details of the cosmology. Future cosmological
measurements of the matter density, cosmological constant and curvature will
open up a window on the very beginning of our Universe and offer an opportunity
to support or falsify the de Sitter Equilibrium cosmology.
