Out-of-equilibrium superfluids in Bjorken, Gubser and FLRW flows reach hydrodynamic attractors after an initial-condition-dependent attractor time, with a novel nonlinear constant-anisotropy regime in Gubser evolution.
The paper introduces new exponential and polynomial supergravity ξ-attractor models in the Jordan frame with non-minimal coupling and shows that Palatini gravity with independent affine connection has no supergravity embedding.
A vacuum-decay model generates primordial curvature perturbations from spatially correlated stochastic noise rather than inflaton fluctuations, solving horizon and flatness problems with zero tensor-to-scalar ratio.
Physics equation corpora exhibit exponential decay in mathematical operator frequencies, proposed as a meta-law that narrows the space of plausible expressions for symbolic regression.
Improved end-of-inflation dynamics shift the Starobinsky model's predicted spectral index n_s by up to 1.2×10^{-3} within the allowed reheating range.
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.
Single-field inflation with ε(N) approaching a constant in (0,1) at early times forms an asymptotic universality class with a Weyl-flat null origin while producing ns and r values compatible with Planck data.
Genetic algorithm reconstructs single-field inflationary models with features in the scalar power spectrum that fit Planck 2018 CMB data better by Δχ² ≲ -10 and suggest alternative background parameters.
Breaking diffeomorphism invariance to transverse diffeomorphisms in the inflaton sector yields modified slow-roll parameters and power spectra with novel post-inflationary regimes for quadratic potentials.
Non-Bunch-Davies initial conditions substantially improve the fit of various single-field slow-roll inflation models to updated n_s-r constraints from ACT DR6 combined with Planck, DESI, and BICEP/Keck data.
Deriving Hubble slow-roll parameters from an analytic approximate Hubble parameter in Starobinsky inflation provides better accuracy than the potential slow-roll approximation, reducing the inferred e-foldings by more than one for ns=0.9649.
Non-parametric knot-based reconstruction of the primordial power spectrum P_R(k) from BOSS+eBOSS data up to k=0.3 h/Mpc favors a quasi-scale-invariant power law and constrains n_s = 0.976 ± 0.021 with no evidence for primordial features.
F-term hybrid inflation with SU(1,1)/U(1) or SU(2)/U(1) Kähler geometry in GUTs can be realized without inflationary extrema for broad parameters, matching ACT/SPT data via curvature and tadpole adjustments while predicting cosmic string gravitational waves.
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.
A Palatini-inspired induced-gravity inflation model in supergravity fits ACT DR6 data while embedding into a B-L extended MSSM with split SUSY and leptogenesis.
Updated constraints on non-zero VEV parameter M from ACT+Planck data, plus lattice simulations showing oscillon formation and reheating implications.
Three standard inflationary potentials remain compatible with Planck, BICEP/Keck, DESI DR2, and ACT DR6 data when placed in minimally coupled f(R,T)=R+16πGλT gravity for suitable ranges of the model parameters and coupling λ.
A review thesis covering Mukhanov parametrization, general scalar-tensor theories, and new slow-roll techniques for canonical and noncanonical inflation observables.
Modified gravity theories supply viable mathematical frameworks for inflation, bounces, and dark energy eras that match observational data.
Lecture notes providing a generic introduction to reheating after inflation, covering its theoretical, phenomenological, and observational aspects.
