We study the dynamics of a generalized inflationary model in which both the scalar field and its derivatives are coupled to the gravity. We consider a general form of the nonminimal derivative coupling in order to have a complete treatment…
Natural Inflation with non-minimal coupling (NMC) to gravity, embodied by a Lagrangian term $\xi \phi^2 R $, is investigated in the context of an extended gravity of the form $R+ \alpha R^2$. The treatment is performed in the Palatini…
We study Quadratic Inflation with the inflaton field $\phi$ coupled non-minimally to the curvature scalar $R$, so that the potential during inflation is of the form $V\propto m^2\phi^2+\xi R\phi^2$. We show that with a suitable choice of…
In this paper, we study the global phase space dynamics of single nonminimally coupled scalar field inflation models in the metric and Palatini formalisms. Working in the Jordan frame, we derive the scalar-tensor general field equations and…
The inflation model with non-minimal coupling scalar field in the context of the hybrid metric Palatini is studied in this paper. We derive the Einstein's field equations, the equations of motion of the scalar field. Furthermore,the…
The latest released data from Planck in 2018, put up tighter constraints on inflationary parameters. In the present article, the in-built symmetry of the non-minimally coupled scalar-tensor theory of gravity is used to fix the coupling…
We investigate the impact of a non-minimal coupling of the scalar field with gravity in inflationary models, where a small coupling is allowed. As a concrete example, we consider the Witten-O'Raifeartaigh model, where, in line with other…
We consider, in Palatini formalism, a modified gravity of which the scalar field derivative couples to Einstein tensor. In this scenario, Ricci scalar, Ricci tensor and Einstein tensor are functions of connection field. As a result, the…
We consider models of a scalar field coupled to quadratic $R\!+\!R^2$ gravity in the framework of the Palatini formulation. The resulting Einstein-frame generalized $k$-inflation effective theory is analyzed assuming that the constant-roll…
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 Palatini formulation has been successful in the development of several alternative theories of gravity. It is well understood that the Palatini and metric formulations are equivalent in minimally coupled scalar-tensor models, but…
We provide a mechanism to obtain multiple inflection points for the inflaton potential based on the Coleman-Weinberg potential. The key ingredient is the existence of zeros of the inflaton quartic coupling beta function, which can be simply…
We study inflationary models based on a non-minimal coupling of a singlet scalar to gravity, focussing on the preheating dynamics and the unitarity issues in this regime. If the scalar does not have significant couplings to other fields,…
We investigate a class of inflationary models in modified gravity theories which contain a non-minimal coupling between gravity and a scalar field $\phi$ (inflaton) as $f(R,T)=R \bigl(1+\alpha+ \kappa^4 \beta T \bigr)+\kappa^2\gamma T $…
In this work, we revisit the Witten-O'Raifeartaigh model of inflation, in which the potential takes a $\operatorname{log}^2(\phi/M)$ form, when the scalar field is non-minimally coupled to gravity. We investigate the impact of the coupling…
We discuss how the non-minimal coupling $\xi\phi^2R$ between the inflaton and the Ricci scalar affects the predictions of single field inflation models where the inflaton has a non-zero vacuum expectation value (VEV) $v$ after inflation. We…
We explore the paradigm according to which inflation is driven by a four-dimensional strongly coupled dynamics coupled non-minimally to gravity. We start by introducing the general setup, both in the metric and Palatini formulation, for…
We study quantum corrections to an inflationary model, which has the attractive feature of being classically scale-invariant. In this model, quadratic gravity plays along a scalar field in such a way that inflation begins near the unstable…
We study inflation in scalar-tensor perturbative quantum gravity driven by a one-loop effective potential. We consider effective potentials generated by three models. The first model describes a single scalar field with a non-vanishing…
We study how higher-order gravity affects Higgs inflation in the Palatini formulation. We first review the metric and Palatini formulations in comparative manner and discuss their differences. Next cosmic inflation driven by a scalar field…
