We construct models with the Gauss-Bonnet term multiplied to a function of the scalar field leading to inflationary scenario. The consideration is related with the slow-roll approximation. The cosmological attractor approach gives the…
We study the cosmological evolution of the field equations in the context of Einstein-Aether cosmology by including a scalar field in a spatially flat Friedmann--Lema\^{\i}tre--Robertson--Walker spacetime. Our analysis is separated into two…
The possibility of linking inflation and late cosmic accelerated expansion using the $\alpha$-attractor models has received increasing attention due to their physical motivation. In the early universe, $\alpha$-attractors provide an…
We consider a generic class of the so-called inflationary $-\alpha$ attractor models and compute the cosmological observables in the Einstein and Jordan frames, of the corresponding $F(R)-$gravity theory. We find that the two sets coincide…
We study cosmological $\alpha$-attractors in superconformal/supergravity models, where $\alpha$ is related to the geometry of the moduli space. For $\alpha=1$ attractors \cite{Kallosh:2013hoa} we present a generalization of the previously…
We introduce a new family of cosmological attractors with non-minimal coupling of gravity and non-canonical kinetic terms. In the Einstein frame, these models transform into a class of exponential and polynomial attractors with the spectral…
We perform in this work an analysis of the background dynamics for $\alpha$-attractor models in the context of loop quantum cosmology. Particular attention is given to the determination of the duration of the inflationary phase that is…
The massive scalar field theory and the chiral Schwinger model are quantized on a Poincar\'e disk of radius $\rho$. The amplitudes are derived in terms of hypergeometric functions. The behavior at long distances and near the boundary of…
We construct $\alpha$-attractor versions of hybrid inflation models. In these models, the potential of the inflaton field $\varphi$ is uplifted by the potential of the second field $\chi$. This uplifting ends due to a tachyonic instability…
We investigate scalar-field cosmologies in the Bianchi V spacetime using a dynamical-systems framework. Motivated by representative $\alpha$-attractor potentials - the E-model and T-model - we apply averaging theorems and amplitude--phase…
The so-called Einstein-Aether theory is General Relativity coupled (at second derivative order) to a dynamical unit time-like vector field (the aether). It is a Lorentz-violating theory, and gained much attention in the recent years. In the…
We develop four-parameter supergravity models of inflation and dark energy, constrained so that ${\delta\rho\over \rho}$, $n_s$ and the cosmological constant $\Lambda $ take their known observable values, but where the mass of gravitino…
We investigate the attractor mechanism for spherically symmetric extremal black holes in Einstein-Born-Infeld-dilaton theory of gravity in four-dimensions, in the presence of a cosmological constant. We look for solutions analytic near the…
In a series of recent papers Kallosh, Linde, and collaborators have provided a unified description of single-field inflation with several types of potentials, ranging from power law to supergravity, in terms of just one parameter $\alpha$.…
We investigate the observational viability of a class of $\alpha$-attractors inflationary models in light of the most recent Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and Large-Scale Structure (LSS) data. By considering a double-well potential we…
Cosmological $\alpha$-attractors are observationally favored due to the asymptotic flatness of the potential. Since its flatness induces the negative pressure even after inflation, the coherent oscillation of the inflaton field could…
In the limit of low viscosity, we show that the amplitude of the modes of oscillation of a rotating fluid, namely inertial modes, concentrate along an attractor formed by a periodic orbit of characteristics of the underlying hyperbolic…
Defining a scale of $k$-modes of the quantum fluctuations during inflation through the dynamical horizon crossing condition $k = aH$ we go from the physical $t$ variable to $k$ variable and solve the equations of cosmological first-order…
Ten-dimensional models, arising from a gravitational action which includes terms up to the fourth order in curvature tensor, are discussed. The spacetime consists of one timelike dimension and two maximally symmetric subspaces, filled with…
Single-field models of $\alpha$-attractor quintessential inflation provide a unified picture of the two periods of early- and late-time cosmic acceleration, where both inflation and dark energy are described by a single scalar degree of…
