A two-field chaotic inflation model with a kinetic-potential coupling can in principle lower ns and r, but the paper's analytic formulas miscompute the correction and its quoted parameter ranges are fitted rather than predicted.

abstract
We propose a new field theory mechanism for generating an effective trans-Planckian decay constant from sub-Planckian ones. Using the minimal two axions and a hierarchy between two axion decay constants is sufficient for realizing inflation through non-perturbative effects only and with minimal tuning. The inflationary motion is kept entirely within a sub-Planckian domain. We outline possible strategies of embedding the model in a string theory setup.

Tilt and Tensor-to-Scalar Ratio in Multi-Scalar Field Inflation: Non-Sum-Separable Case
A two-field chaotic inflation model with a kinetic-potential coupling can in principle lower ns and r, but the paper's analytic formulas miscompute the correction and its quoted parameter ranges are fitted rather than predicted.
