Inflation with scalar-tensor theory of gravity

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

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 parameter, the functional Brans-Dicke parameter, and the potential of the theory. It is found that all the three different power-law potentials and one exponential, pass these constraints comfortably, and also gracefully exit from inflation.
