We study quintessential inflation using a generalized exponential potential $V(\phi)\propto exp(-\lambda \phi^n/Mpl^n), n>1$, the model admits slow-roll inflation at early times and leads to close-to-scaling behaviour in the post…
We calculate high-precision constraints on Natural Inflation relative to current observational constraints from Planck 2018 + BICEP/Keck(BK15) Polarization + BAO on $r$ and $n_S$, including post-inflationary history of the universe. We find…

We consider natural inflation in a warm inflation framework with a temperature-dependent dissipative coefficient $\Gamma \propto T^3$. Natural inflation can be compatible with the Planck 2018 results with such warm assistance. With no a…
In this work, we examine cosmological constraints on models of composite inflation based on the slow-roll approximation by using the recent Planck measurement. We compare the spectral index of curvature perturbation (and its running) and…
The natural inflation model with a periodic cosine potential is ruled out by recent Planck 2018 data for the decay constant $f \lesssim 5.5~M_{\rm Pl}$. If the Planck data is combined with the BICEP Keck array and BAO data, the model is…
In this paper we explored in detail a phenomenological model of modified single field natural inflation in light of recent cosmological experiments, BICEP2. Our main goal is to construct an inflationary model which not only predicts the…

We investigate a class of slow roll inflationary models in the light of the recent Cosmic Microwave Background constraints from Planck 2018, ACT DR6, DESI DR1, and BICEP/\textit{Keck} 2018. The combined dataset favors a higher value of the…
We study the Hybrid Natural Inflation (HNI) model and some of its realisations in the light of recent CMB observations, mainly Planck temperature and WMAP-9 polarization, and compare with the recent release of BICEP2 dataset. The…
We study the primordial perturbations and reheating process in the models where the Gauss-Bonnet term is non-minimally coupled to the canonical and non-canonical (DBI and tachyon) scalar fields. We consider several potentials and…
Recent ACT data favor a higher scalar spectral index $n_s$, placing models such as $\alpha$-attractor T-models and natural Inflation in tension with current observations. We propose a K-inflation framework with a field-dependent…
We investigate the influence on the inflationary predictions from the reheating processes characterized by the $e$-folding number $N_{\mathrm{reh}}$ and the effective equation-of-state parameter $w_{\mathrm{reh}}$ during the reheating…
We study the dynamics of inflation in a generalized scalar-torsion gravity scenario by assuming a canonical scalar field non-minimally coupled to torsion with a Galileon-type self-interaction. After obtaining the field equations for a flat…

We study inflationary constraints from reheating on two classes of single-field inflationary models: a generalized $\alpha$-attractor with potential $V(\phi) = V_0 \!\left(1 - \sech^p\!\left[\phi/(\sqrt{6\alpha}\,M_{Pl})\right]\right)$ and…
Natural supergravity models of new inflation are reconsidered as minimal inflationary models within slow-roll approximation. Their running spectral index is derived in a revised form with recent observational results and future refinements…
