Inflationary cosmology in modified gravity theories
, 2015 We review inflationary cosmology in modified gravity such as $R^2$ gravity with its extensions in order to generalize the Starobinsky inflation model. In particular, we explore inflation realized by three kinds of effects: modification of gravity, the ...

Inflationary Cosmology and Quantization Ambiguities in Semi-Classical Loop Quantum Gravity [PDF]
, 2004 In loop quantum gravity, modifications to the geometrical density cause a self-interacting scalar field to accelerate away from a minimum of its potential.

Tachyonic inflation in loop quantum cosmology
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019 A tachyon field might be responsible for cosmological inflation at an early time and contribute to cosmological dark matter at a later time. We investigate tachyonic inflation by analyzing a tachyon field with different potentials in the framework of ...

Inflation and the cosmological constant

Nearly Forgotten Cosmological Concept of E. B. Gliner
Universe, 2023 E. B. Gliner started his scientific career in 1963 at the age of 40. In 1965, when the existence of the cosmological constant λ seemed unnecessary to most cosmologists, he renewed interest in the problem by emphasizing a material interpretation of de ...

Cosmology analogues in optical systems [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 We discuss the possibility of exploiting polariton-exciton physics as an analogue experimental tool to study challenging ideas and existing problems arising in the context of gravity theory and theoretical cosmology.

Axion Cosmology and the Energy Scale of Inflation
, 2010 We survey observational constraints on the parameter space of inflation and axions and map out two allowed windows: the classic window and the inflationary anthropic window.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We consider multiverse models in two-dimensional linear dilaton-gravity theories as toy models of false vacuum eternal inflation. Coupling conformal matter we calculate the Von Neumann entropy of subregions. When these are sufficiently large we find that

Inflation: From Theory to Observation and Back
, 1997 Alan Guth introduced cosmologists to inflation at the 1980 Texas Symposium. Since, inflation has had almost as much impact on cosmology as the big-bang model itself. However, unlike the big-bang model, it has little observational support. Hopefully, that
