A model of chaotic inflation based on the theory of a scalar field with potential \lambda\phi^4 perfectly matches the observational data if one adds to it a tiny non-minimal coupling to gravity -\xi/2 \phi^2 R with \xi > 0.002. We describe…
We introduce a new class of models of chaotic inflation inspired by the superconformal approach to supergravity. This class of models allows a functional freedom of choice of the inflaton potential V = |f(\phi)|^2. The simplest model of…
We study models of inflation where the scalar field $\phi$ that drives inflation is coupled non-minimally to gravity via $\xi \phi^2 R$, or where the gravity sector is enlarged by an $R^2$ term. We consider the original Higgs inflation,…
In this work, we study inflation with the non-minimally coupled quadratic, Standard Model (SM) Higgs and hilltop potentials through $\xi \phi^2R$ term in the Palatini gravity. We first analyze observational parameters of Palatini quadratic…
The non-minimal coupling of the inflaton to gravity, $\xi R\phi^2$, is known to alleviate the smallness (fine-tuning) of the quartic coupling $\lambda$ in the chaotic inflation with $\phi^4$ potential. A large $\xi$ is required to obtain…
We suggest a clockwork mechanism for a Higgs-like inflation with the non-minimal coupling term $\xi\phi^2 R$. The seemingly unnatural ratio of parameters, $\lambda/\xi^2 \sim 10^{-10}$ of the self quartic coupling of the inflaton,…
A simple realization of inflation consists of adding the following operators to the Einstein-Hilbert action: (partial phi)^2, lambda phi^4, and xi phi^2 R, with xi a large non-minimal coupling. Recently there has been much discussion as to…
Higgs inflation and $R^2$-inflation (Starobinsky model) are two limits of the same quantum model, hereafter called Starobinsky-Higgs. We analyse the two-loop action of the Higgs-like scalar $\phi$ in the presence of: 1) non-minimal coupling…
We investigate the cosmological inflation in a class of supergravity models that are generalizations of non-supersymmetric $R^2$ models. Although such models have been extensively studied recently, especially after the launch of the PLANCK…
We consider models of chaotic inflation driven by the real parts of a conjugate pair of Higgs superfields involved in the spontaneous breaking of a grand unification symmetry at a scale assuming its supersymmetric value. We combine a…
A non-minimal coupling xi of the Standard Model Higgs field to gravity can give rise to inflation, but large xi is required and thus leads to a violation of perturbative unitarity at Mp/xi, which is well below the inflationary scale…
We present the impact of non-minimal coupling $\xi \phi^2 R$ on the inflationary parameters by taking into account the models of single-field inflation with the inflaton that has a non-zero vacuum expectation value ($v$) after the period of…
We consider an extension of Higgs inflation in which the Higgs field is non-minimally coupled to gravity through its kinetic term. We analyzed power-law coupling functions with positive or negative integer power and found that the Higgs…
In this paper, we investigate chaotic inflation from scalar field subjected to potential in the framework of $f(R^2, P, Q)$-gravity, where we add a correction to Einstein's gravity based on a function of the square of the Ricci scalar…
We study chaotic inflation in the context of modified gravitational theories. Our analysis covers models based on (i) a field coupling $\omega(\phi)$ with the kinetic energy $X$ and a nonmimimal coupling $\zeta \phi^{2} R/2$ with a Ricci…
Motivated by the recent `Higgs-inflation' scenario based on a single inflaton field, we consider more generic two-field inflation with non-minimal coupling term. The generic analytic expressions are derived for cosmological observables with…
We consider models of chaotic inflation driven by the real parts of a conjugate pair of Higgs superfields involved in the spontaneous breaking of a grand unification symmetry at a scale assuming its supersymmetric value. Employing quadratic…
We are considering the cosmological consequences of an induced gravity theory coupled to the minimal standard model of particle physics. The non-minimal coupling parameter between gravity and the Higgs field must then be very large,…
We study a two-field quintessential Higgs inflation model in which a quintessence field with an exponential potential $e^{-\beta\phi/M_P}$ is coupled to the Higgs field from the beginning of inflation. The Higgs field itself is also…
We consider the non-supersymmetric models of chaotic (driven by a quadratic potential) and hybrid inflation, taking into account the minimal possible radiative corrections to the inflationary potential. We show that two simple coupling…
