保形耦合下的快速轧辊膨胀

Rapid roll Inflation with Conformal Coupling

Lev Kofman, Shinji Mukohyama

摘要:

磁膨胀是用一个与重力耦合最小的缓慢滚动的标量场来实现的。相反,我们考虑一个标量的动力学与一个平坦的有效的潜力,共形耦合到重力。令人惊讶的是,它包含了一个吸引子暴胀的解决方案与快速滚动的暴胀场。我们讨论了具有平坦势的共形暴胀(包括混合暴胀)模型。共形耦合暴胀子不产生宇宙学涨落。我们考虑在这些模型中调制(不均匀再加热)或曲率宇宙学波动的实现。我们还实现了流行的弦理论的扭曲通货膨胀的情况下,基于相互作用的D3反D3膜这些不寻常的功能。由于与四维引力的共形耦合,原来的扭曲膜暴胀具有很大的暴胀子质量。而不是考虑这是一个问题,并试图治愈它与额外的工程,我们表明,翘曲的通货膨胀与共形耦合,快速滚动的暴胀是可能的N=37折叠,这需要低能量尺度1-100 TeV的通货膨胀。巧合的是,同样的扭曲数字命理学可以负责的层次结构。结果表明,与紧致流形的翘曲几何(如KS几何的S^3)的角等距相关的标量具有与共形耦合模相同的解,也不能对宇宙学涨落负责。我们讨论其他的可能性。

英文摘要:

Usual inflation is realized with a slow rolling scalar field minimally coupled to gravity. In contrast, we consider dynamics of a scalar with a flat effective potential, conformally coupled to gravity. Surprisingly, it contains an attractor inflationary solution with the rapidly rolling inflaton field. We discuss models with the conformal inflaton with a flat potential (including hybrid inflation). There is no generation of cosmological fluctuations from the conformally coupled inflaton. We consider realizations of modulated (inhomogeneous reheating) or curvaton cosmological fluctuations in these models. We also implement these unusual features for the popular string-theoretic warped inflationary scenario, based on the interacting D3-anti D3 branes. The original warped brane inflation suffers a large inflaton mass due to conformal coupling to 4-dimensional gravity. Instead of considering this as a problem and trying to cure it with extra engineering, we show that warped inflation with the conformally coupled, rapidly rolling inflaton is yet possible with N=37 efoldings, which requires low energy scales 1-100 TeV of inflation. Coincidentally, the same warping numerology can be responsible for the hierarchy. It is shown that the scalars associated with angular isometries of the warped geometry of compact manifold (e.g. S^3 of KS geometry) have solutions identical to conformally coupled modes and also cannot be responsible for cosmological fluctuations. We discuss other possibilities.
