Abstract
We study inflation in the attractor model under a non-slow-roll dynamics with an ansatz proposed by Gong \& Sasaki \cite{Gong:2015ypa} of assuming . Under this approach, we construct a class of local shapes of inflaton potential that are different from the T-models. We find this type of inflationary scenario predicts an attractor at and . In our approach, the non-slow-roll inflaton dynamics are related to the parameter which is the curvature of K\"ahler geometry in the SUGRA embedding of this model.
