abstract
In the presence of background fields that spontaneously violate Lorentz invariance, a matter-antimatter asymmetry can be generated even in thermal equilibrium. In this paper we systematically investigate models of this type, showing that either high-energy or electroweak versions of baryogenesis are possible, depending on the dynamics of the Lorentz-violating fields. In addition to the previously-studied models of spontaneous baryogenesis and quintessential baryogenesis, we identify two scenarios of interest: baryogenesis from a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson with weak-scale mass and intermediate-scale baryon-number violation, and sphaleron-induced baryogenesis driven by a constant-magnitude vector with a late-time phase transition.

Baryon asymmetry from higher-order matter contributions in gravity
A T^2-dependent coupling between the derivative of T_mu nu T^mu nu and the baryon current can generate the observed baryon asymmetry in GR and f(R,T^2) gravity, at the cost of fitted parameters.
