Finite Grand Unified Theories and Inflation
نویسندگان
چکیده
A class of finite GUTs in curved spacetime is considered in connection with the cosmological inflation scenario. It is confirmed that the running of the scalar-gravitational coupling constant in these models helps realizing the successful chaotic inflation. The analyses are made for some different sets of the models.

Inflationary Reheating in Grand Unified Theories
Grand unified theories may display multiply interacting fields with strong coupling dynamics. This poses two new problems: (1) what is the nature of chaotic reheating after inflation, and (2) how is reheating sensitive to the mass spectrum of these theories ? We answer these questions in two interesting limiting cases and demonstrate an increased efficiency of reheating which strongly enhances ...
متن کاملSelecting Finite Unified Theories with Current Data
Finite Unified Theories (FUTs) are N = 1 supersymmetric Grand Unified Theories that can be made all-loop finite, leading to a severe reduction of the free parameters. We review the investigation of FUTs based on SU(5) in the context of low-energy phenomenology observables. Using the restrictions from the top and bottom quark masses, it is possible to discriminate between different models. Inclu...
متن کاملGut Cosmic Magnetic Fields in a Warm Inflationary Universe
Sources of magnetic fields from grand unified theories are studied in the warm inflation regime. A ferromagnetic Savvidy vacuum scenario is presented that yields observationally interesting large scale magnetic fields. As an intermediate step, a general analysis is made of defect production at the onset of warm inflation and monopole constraints are obtained. Many features of this Savvidy vacuu...
متن کاملv 1 8 A pr 1 99 4 OITS - 540 Proton Life - Time Problem In Finite Grand Unified Theories ∗
We study proton decay in finite supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified theories. We find that the dimension-five operators due to color triplet higgsino induce too rapid a proton decay. This behaviour can be traced to the large Yukawa couplings to the first generation that are necessary for finiteness.
متن کاملProduction of Topological Defects at the End of Inflation
Hybrid inflation within supersymmetric grand unified theories, as well as inflation through brane collisions within braneworld cosmological models, lead to the formation of onedimensional defects. Observational data, mainly from the cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropies but also from the gravitational wave background, impose constraints on the free parameters of the models. I rev...
