Islands in closed and open universes

We show that spatial curvature has a significant effect on the existence of entanglement islands in cosmology. We consider a homogeneous, isotropic universe with thermal radiation purified by a reference spacetime. Arbitrarily small positive curvature guarantees that the entire universe is an island. Proper subsets of the time-symmetric slice of a closed or open universe can be islands, but only if the cosmological constant is negative and sufficiently large in magnitude.
