Numerical analysis of the generalized Starobinsky inflationary model

In this work we study numerically one kind of generalization of the Starobinsky inflationary model (power-law type), which is characterized by the parameter $p$. In order to find the parameter $p$ that fixes with observations, we compute the cosmological parameters $A_S$, $n_S$, and $r$ for several values of $p\simeq 1$. We have found that the value of $p=1.0004$ reproduces the value of $A_S$, $n_\sca$, and $r$ in agreement with current observational data.

A multifield tachyon quintom model of dark energy and fate of the universe

We investigate a multi-field model of dark energy in this paper. We develop a model of dark energy with two multiple scalar fields, one we consider, is a multifield tachyon and the other is multi-field phantom tachyon scalars. We make an analysis of the system in phase space by considering inverse square potentials suitable for these models. Through the development of an autonomous dynamical system, the critical points and their stability analysis is performed. It has been observed that these stable critical points are satisfied by power law solutions. Moving on towards the analysis we can predict the fate of the universe. A special feature of this model is that it affects the equation of state parameter w to alter from being it greater than negative one to be less than it during the evolutionary phase of the universe. Thus, its all about the phantom divide which turns out to be decisive in the evolution of the cosmos in these models.

Semiclassical analysis of the Starobinsky inflationary model

In this work we study the scalar power spectrum and the spectral index for the Starobinsky inflationary model using the phase integral method up-to third-order of approximation. We show that the semiclassical methods reproduce the scalar power spectrum for the Starobinsky model with a good accuracy, and the value of the spectral index compares favorably with observations. Also, we compare the results with the uniform approximation method and the second-order slow-roll approximation.
