ABSTRACT: In this document, using a minisuperspace model, in the WdW equation we come up with an evaluation as to an equation which could fit a specialized set of boundary conditions for bounds to early universe vacuum energy. In addition, using the arguments of Golgov, as of a 1989 Moriond Astrophysics meeting of that date we ascertain the probability vacuum energy, as re-written as the cosmological constant, could lead to the production of a “baby” universe. The number, N, of that supposition is then analyzed in detail. This in turn has a relationship to a non-linear B field contribution in early universe cosmology whose consequences are explored and delineated. If there is a multiverse, the graviton mass is non-zero. Through arguments given in the document, the scale factor is also then, non-zero, which also portends to having the graviton not equal to zero if there is a corresponding initial non-linear B field, in the set up of the multiverse cosmology. If the Graviton has zero mass, this corresponds to a single repeating universe, with different morphology.
