A supergravity construction using two chiral superfields embeds arbitrary F(R) gravity as a UV completion of Starobinsky inflation, stabilized by the dilaton and consistent with swampland constraints in a heterotic string example.
Schwinger fermion production in axion inflation damps gauge fields, enabling observable primordial gravitational waves in LISA/ET bands while satisfying ΔN_eff limits and identifying a new damped-oscillation backreaction regime.
Flavour deconstruction models with semi-simple gauge groups generically produce light monopoles that require low-scale reheating after inflation to satisfy cosmological and astrophysical bounds.
A spectator scalar field with strong portal coupling to the inflaton sources a stochastic gravitational wave background reaching Ω_GW h² ∼ 10^{-11} at frequencies 10^7-10^8 Hz for benchmark parameters σ/λ ≃ 10^4 and T_reh = 2×10^{14} GeV.
Two NILC extensions—one deprojecting foreground moments and one marginalizing residuals at the likelihood level—yield unbiased r estimates and consistent lensing B-mode reconstruction in SO-SAT-like simulations.
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.
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.
Dark matter is composed of composite quark-antiquark objects stabilized by axion domain walls, offering a unified account of dark matter and baryon asymmetry.
A memorial review of the Starobinsky inflation model that proposes a deformation for primordial black hole production and discusses superstring quantum corrections plus universal reheating.
