The twilight of the single field slow rolling inflaton

We present an study from PLANCK2013+WP+BAO:$Λ$CDM+$r$+$α_s$ data, where 49 slow roll inflationary potentials are tested, showing that the theoretical value of the running provided by 48 of these potentials has a deviation to the expected observational value larger than $1.6σ$, and its modulus is smaller than the modulus of the expected observational one, what disfavours these models at 94.5 \% of Confidence Level (C.L.), concluding from these results that, inflationary cosmology may require multiple fields or a breakdown of slow roll condition. This conclusion has drastically changed with the last data provided by PLANCK2015 where the modulus of the expected observational value of the running has been reduced one order, getting shorter the distance to its theoretical value $1σ$ or more, what allows the viability of the majority of the potentials disfavored by the running provided by PLANCK2013 data. However if one takes into account the running of the running, its theoretical value, which in the slow roll regime depends on the slow roll parameters at third order, is incompatible with the expected observational value provided by PLANCK2013 and PLANCK2015, disfavouring at 92.8 \% C.L. or more, 39 of the 49 slow roll potentials tested. Moreover, if one restricts the number of e-folds to be between 30 and 80, then only two potentials will survive to this test.

Non-singular models of universes in teleparallel theories

Different models of universes are considered in the context of teleparallel theories. Assuming that the universe is filled by a fluid with equation of state (EoS) $P=-ρ-f(ρ)$, for different teleparallel theories and different EoS we study its dynamics. Two particular cases are studied in detail: in the first one we consider a function $f$ with two zeros (two de Sitter solutions) that mimics a huge cosmological constant at early times and a pressureless fluid at late times. In the second one, in the context of loop quantum cosmology with a small cosmological constant, we consider a pressureless fluid ($P=0\Leftrightarrow f(ρ)=-ρ$) which means that there are a de Sitter and an anti de Sitter solution. In both cases one obtains a non-singular universe that at early times is in an inflationary phase, after leaving this phase it passes trough a matter dominated phase and finally at late times it expands in an accelerated way.

On the fate of the phantom dark energy universe in semiclassical gravity II: Scalar phantom fields

Quantum corrections coming from massless fields conformally coupled with gravity are studied, in order to see if they can lead to avoidance of the annoying Big Rip singularity which shows up in a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe filled with dark energy and modeled by a scalar phantom field. The dynamics of the model are discussed for all values of the two parameters, named $α>0$ and $β<0$, corresponding to the regularization process. The new results are compared with the ones obtained in \cite{hae11} previously, where dark energy was modeled by means of a phantom fluid with equation of state $P=ωρ$, with $ω<-1$.

Deformations of Kahler manifolds with non vanishing holomorphic vector fields

In this article we study compact Kähler manifolds $X$ admitting non-singular holomorphic vector fields with the aim of extending to this setting the classical birational classification of projective varieties with tangent vector fields. We prove that any such a Kähler manifold $X$ admits an arbitrarily small deformation of a particular type which is a suspension over a torus; that is, a quotient of $F\times \mbb C^s$ fibering over a torus $T=\mbb C^s/Λ$. We derive some results dealing with the structure of such manifolds. In particular, we prove an extension of Calabi's theorem describing the structure of compact Kähler manifolds with $c_1(X)=0$ to general Kähler manifolds with non-vanishing vector fields. A complete classification when $X$ is a projective manifold or when $\dim X\leq s+2$ is also given. As an application, it is shown that the study of the dynamics of holomorphic tangent fields on compact Kähler manifolds reduces to the case of rational manifolds.

On the Malcev completion of Kähler groups

Restrictions are placed on the presentation and holonomy algebra of a Kähler group. Let $X$ be compact Kähler. It is known that the formality of $X$, its Albanese map and the Hodge structure of $H^{\ast}(X)$ impose restrictions on the holonomy algebra of $π_1 X$. We derive further restrictions from Sullivan's 1-minimal model. An effective algorithm is given to compute the holonomy algebra of a group from a presentation. Some very strong restrictions on Kähler groups with few defining relations are obtained.
