Inflationary universe in loop quantum cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Loop quantum cosmology provides a nice solution of avoiding the big bang singularity through a big bounce mechanism in the high energy region. In loop quantum cosmology an inflationary universe is emergent after the big bounce, no matter what matter ...

Standard Model—axion—seesaw—Higgs portal inflation. Five problems of particle physics and cosmology solved in one stroke [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a minimal extension of the Standard Model (SM) providing a consistent picture of particle physics from the electroweak scale to the Planck scale and of cosmology from inflation until today.

Inflation and Alternatives with Blue Tensor Spectra

open access: yes, 2014
We study the tilt of the primordial gravitational waves spectrum. A hint of blue tilt is shown from analyzing the BICEP2 and POLARBEAR data. Motivated by this, we explore the possibilities of blue tensor spectra from the very early universe cosmology ...

Natural Chain Inflation

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2022
In Chain Inflation the universe tunnels along a series of false vacua of ever-decreasing energy. The main goal of this paper is to embed Chain Inflation in high energy fundamental physics.

Stringy Effects During Inflation and Reheating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We consider inflationary cosmology in the context of string compactifications with multiple throats. In scenarios where the warping differs significantly between throats, string and Kaluza-Klein physics can generate potentially observable corrections to ...

Alternatives to cosmological inflation [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Today, 2008
Inflationary cosmology is elegant and can claim significant predictive successes. But its attendant difficulties have motivated competing scenarios that also agree with observation.

Semiclassical Cosmological Perturbations Generated During Inflation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Theoretical Physics, 2000
Environment interaction may induce stochastic semiclassical dynamics in open quantum systems. In the gravitational context, stress-energy fluctuations of quantum matter fields give rise to a stochastic behaviour in the spacetime geometry. Einstein-Langevin equation is a suitable tool to take these effects into account when addressing the back-reaction ...

Bounce inflation in $f(T)$ Cosmology: A unified inflaton-quintessence field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate a bounce inflation model with a graceful exit into the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) decelerated Universe within f(T)-gravity framework, where T is the torsion scalar in the teleparallelism.

Pre-Big-Bang in String Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We compute the amount of inflation required to solve the horizon problem of cosmology in the pre-big-bang scenario. First we give a quick overview of string cosmology as developed by Veneziano and collaborators.

MSSM inflation and cosmological attractors [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2018
Inflationary scenarios motivated by the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) where five scalar fields are non-minimally coupled to gravity are considered. The potential of the model and the function of non-minimal coupling are polynomials of two Higgs doublet convolutions.
