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 the inflationary cosmology it occurs frequently that the inflaton field is trapped in a local, transient minimum with non-zero vacuum energy. The difficulty regarding the curvature perturbation produced during such a stage is that…

In this note, we will introduce an action for warm inflation model with direct coupling between the pseudoscalar field and mass-less $SU(2)$ gauge fields. The potential of inflaton is protected against the thermal corrections in a thermal…

We compute the full bispectra, namely both auto- and cross- bispectra, of primordial curvature and tensor perturbations in the most general single-field inflation model whose scalar and gravitational equations of motion are of second order.…

We explore inflation via the effective potential of the minimal Wess-Zumino model, considering both the real and imaginary components of the complex field. Using transport techniques, we calculate the full allowed range of $n_s$, $r$ and…
