A one-parameter family of α-attractor potentials interpolates between exponential and polynomial attractor predictions, letting n_s scan the range preferred by CMB+DESI.
Authors derive CMB power spectra from burst particle production in inflation, report a mild 2σ hint in joint Planck+ACT data for features on 3-10 Mpc scales, and show power-spectrum constraints outperform matched filters for lighter particles.
A Gompertzian reionization model with three nuisance parameters demotes optical depth to a derived quantity, reducing its uncertainty by a factor of three and revealing potential neutrino mass tension in CMB analyses.
New ξ-attractors with non-minimal coupling and non-canonical kinetics yield Einstein-frame exponential and polynomial potentials whose ns spans 1-2/N to 1-1/N and r can reach zero as ξ grows, fitting Planck, BICEP/Keck, ACT, SPT, and DESI data, plus a supergravity realization.
An R^3 modification to R^2-Higgs inflation fits the high n_s by inducing Goldstone preheating that reconciles CMB and inflationary energy scales.
Four Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet inflationary models are reconstructed from a chosen tensor-to-scalar ratio and shown to satisfy ACT and GW170817 constraints including scalar perturbation amplitude.
Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet inflation can yield positive spectral-index running with a viable era under ACT-like hints, while scalar-field and F(R) models largely cannot.
MCMC analysis of sixteen ghost-free f(R,G) inflation models shows all reproduce ns ≈ 0.97 at 60 e-folds with stable μ ≈ 0.1, preference set by Hubble parametrization.
Thermal corrections to reheating and freeze-in DM production rates are generally small in the computable regime but can be large in constructed counter-examples.
Generic string-loop corrections to the Kähler potential replace near-minimum slow-roll in LVS blow-up inflation with a power-law plateau at larger fields, yielding higher r still consistent with current CMB/BAO data.
Unitarity-conserving Peccei-Quinn inflation agrees with ACT data within 1 sigma and allows axion decay constants up to 6.4e13 GeV without post-inflation symmetry restoration, unlike the conventional model.
Review summarizing inflation theory, its observational successes, and a data-driven tension with Starobinsky inflation addressed by higher-order curvature corrections.
