Abstract

We consider a cosmological inflation with two inflatons, ϕ\phi and XX. The inflation potential is a hilltop form in the ϕ\phi space and XX is a sideway down-fall field in the region ϕm\phi\ge m. In this model, we calculate the ee-fold number numerically starting from the intitial point which is in the vicinity of the hilltop point. Firstly, by varying parameters and initial conditions the inflaton path field φ\varphi for the BICEP2 point, φBCP2\varphi_{\rm BCP2}, is found to give ns0.96 n_s\simeq 0.96 and r0.16r\simeq 0.16. Next, from the point φBCP2\varphi_{\rm BCP2} to the end of inflation the e-fold number is obtained. We find a reasonable set of parameters allowing the e-fold number in the range 50-60.
