The Possibility of Inflation in Asymptotically Safe Gravity

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We examine the inflationary modes in the cubic curvature theories in the context of asymptotically safe gravity. On the phase space of the Hubble parameter, there exists a critical point which corresponds to the slow-roll inflation in Einstein frame. Most of the e-foldings are attained around the critical point for each inflationary trajectories. If the coupling constants gig_i have the parametric relations generated as the power of the relative energy scale of inflation H0H_0 to the ultraviolet cutoff ΛΛ, a successful inflation with more than 60 e-foldings occurs near the critical point.
