A three-Higgs-doublet inflation model with a complex coupling to gravity can produce a scalar matter-antimatter asymmetry that electroweak sphalerons convert into a baryon asymmetry.

abstract
We study models with several $SU(2)$ scalar doublets where the inert doublets have a non-minimal coupling to gravity and play the role of the inflaton. We allow for this coupling to be complex, thereby introducing CP-violation -- a necessary source of the baryon asymmetry -- in the Higgs-inflaton couplings. We investigate the inflationary dynamics of the model and discuss how the CP-violation of the model is imprinted on the particle asymmetries after inflation in the hot big bang universe.

Baryogenesis from Primordial CP Violation
A three-Higgs-doublet inflation model with a complex coupling to gravity can produce a scalar matter-antimatter asymmetry that electroweak sphalerons convert into a baryon asymmetry.
