In the previous work, a new kind of inflation model was proposed, which has the interesting property that its perturbation equation of motion gets a correction of k^4, due to the non-linearity of the kinetic term. Nonetheless, the…

The scenario of two components warm tachyon inflation is considered where the tachyon field plays the role of inflaton and drives inflation. During inflation, the tachyon scalar field interacts with the other component of the Universe which…
We compare the standard single scalar field inflationary predictions with those of an inflationary phase driven by a tachyon field. A slow-roll formalism is defined for tachyon inflation and we derive the spectra of scalar and tensor…

We study inflation driven by the tachyon field in the holographic braneworld by assuming the second slow-roll parameter $\eta$ is constant. The parameter $\eta$ can be either defined by the tachyon scalar field and the Hubble parameter or…
Scalar field cosmological inflation has a first integral relating the Hubble function and the lagrangian of the scalar field(s), which is known under the names of "Hamilton-Jacobi approach" or "superpotential equation". Here we exploit the…
We derive a lower bound on the field excursion for the tachyon inflation, which is determined by the amplitude of the scalar perturbation and the number of $e$-folds before the end of inflation. Using the relation between the observables…
