Asymptotically Safe Non-Minimal Inflation
We study the constraints imposed by the requirement of Asymptotic Safety on a class of inflationary models with an inflaton field non-minimally coupled to the Ricci scalar. The critical surface in the space of theories is determined by the improved renormalization group flow which takes into account quantum corrections beyond the one loop approximation. The combination of constraints deriving f...
متن کاملEntropy Production during Asymptotically Safe Inflation
The Asymptotic Safety scenario predicts that the deep ultraviolet of Quantum Einstein Gravity is governed by a nontrivial renormalization group fixed point. Analyzing its implications for cosmology using renormalization group improved Einstein equations, we find that it can give rise to a phase of inflationary expansion in the early Universe. Inflation is a pure quantum effect here and requires...
متن کاملInflation by non-minimal coupling
Inflationary scenarios based on simple non-minimal coupling aφ2R and its generalizations are studied. First, generalizing the form of non-minimal coupling to K(φ)R with an arbitrary function K, we show that the flat potential still is obtainable when V (φ)/K2(φ) is asymptotically constant. Very interestingly, if the ratio of the dimensionless quartic coupling(λ) of the inflaton field and the no...
متن کاملD-term inflation in non-minimal supergravity
D-term inflation is one of the most interesting and versatile models of inflation. It is possible to implement naturally D-term inflation within high energy physics, as for example SUSY GUTs, SUGRA, or string theories. D-term inflation avoids the η-problem, while in its standard form it always ends with the formation of cosmic strings. Given the recent three-year WMAP data on the cosmic microwa...
متن کاملMinimal but non-minimal inflation and electroweak symmetry breaking
We consider the most minimal scale invariant extension of the standard model that allows for successful radiative electroweak symmetry breaking and inflation. The framework involves an extra scalar singlet, that plays the rôle of the inflaton, and is compatibile with current experimental bounds owing to the non-minimal coupling of the latter to gravity. This inflationary scenario predicts a ver...
