Abstract: We study the late time evolution of positively curved FRW models with a scalar field which arises in the conformal frame of the R+alphaR2 theory. The resulted three-dimensional dynamical system has two equilibrium solutions corresponding to a de Sitter space and an ever expanding closed universe. We analyze the structure of the first equilibrium with the methods of the center manifold theory and, for the second equilibrium we apply the normal form theory to obtain a simplified system, which we analyze with special phase plane methods. It is shown that an initially expanding closed FRW spacetime avoids recollapse.
