Non-minimal kinetic coupled gravity: inflation on the Warped DGP brane

We consider the non-minimally kinetic coupled version of DGP brane model, where the kinetic term of the scalar field is coupled to the metric and Einstein tensor on the brane by a coupling constant $ζ$. We obtain the corresponding field equations, using the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metric and the perfect fluid, and study the inflationary scenario to confront the numerical analysis of six typical scalar field potentials with the current observational results. We find that among the suggested potentials and coupling constants, subject to the e-folding $N=60$, the potentials $V(ϕ)=σϕ$, $V(ϕ)=σϕ^2$ and $V(ϕ)=σϕ^3$ provide the best fits with both Planck+WP+highL data and Planck+WP+highL+BICEP2 data.

Cosmology with non-minimal coupled gravity: inflation and perturbation analysis

We study a scalar-tensor cosmological model where the Einstein tensor is non-minimally coupled to the free scalar field dynamics. Using FRW metric, we investigate the behavior of scale factor for vacuum, matter and dark energy dominated eras. Especially, we focus on the inflationary behavior at early universe. Moreover, we study the perturbation analysis of this model in order to confront the inflation under consideration with the observational results.

Gauge inflation by kinetic coupled gravity

Recently, a new class of inflationary models, so called \emph{gauge-flation} or non-Abelian gauge field inflation has been introduced where the slow-roll inflation is driven by a non-Abelian gauge field $\textbf{A}$ with the field strength $\textbf{F}$. This class of models are based on a gauge field theory having $\textbf{F}^2$ and $\textbf{F}^4$ terms with a non-Abelian gauge group minimally coupled to gravity. Here, we present a new class of such inflationary models based on a gauge field theory having only $\textbf{F}^2$ term with non-Abelian gauge fields non-minimally coupled to gravity. The non-minimal coupling is set up by introducing the Einstein tensor besides the metric tensor within the $\textbf{F}^2$ term, which is called kinetic coupled gravity. A perturbation analysis is performed to confront the inflation under consideration with Planck and BICEP2 results.

Vector inflation by kinetic coupled gravity

Vector inflation is a newly established model where inflation is driven by non-minimally coupled massive vector fields with a potential term. This model is similar to the model of chaotic inflation with scalar fields, except that for vector fields the isotropy of expansion is achieved either by considering a triplet of orthogonal vector fields or $N$ randomly oriented independent vector fields. We introduce a new version of vector inflation where the vector field has no potential term but is non-minimally coupled to gravity through the kinetic term. The non-minimal coupling is established by introducing the Einstein tensor besides the metric tensor within the kinetic term of the vector field.
