Late-time acceleration and inflation in a Poincar\'e gauge cosmological model
Abstract
A self-consistent model which can unify Starobinsky inflation and the CDM model in the framework of Poincar\'e gauge cosmology (PGC) is studied in this work, without extra inflaton and ``dark energy''. We start from the general nine-parameter PGC Lagrangian and get two Friedmann-like analytical solutions with the certain ghost- and tachyon-free conditions on the Lagrangian parameters. The scalar torsion -determined solution is consistent with Starobinsky cosmology in the early-time and the pseudo-scalar torsion -determined solution contains naturally a constant ``dark energy'' density, , which covers the CDM model in the late-time. According to the latest observations, we estimate the magnitudes of parameters: , in the natural units.
