Inflation driven by scalar field with non-minimal kinetic coupling with Higgs and quadratic potentials

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study a scalar field with non-minimal kinetic coupling to itself and to the curvature. The slow rolling conditions allowing an inflationary background have been found. The quadratic and Higgs type potentials have been considered, and the corresponding values for the scalar fields at the end of inflation allows to recover the connection with particle physics.
