abstract

We propose a multi-natural inflation model in which the single-field inflaton potential consists of two or more sinusoidal potentials that are comparable in size, but have different periodicity with a possible non-zero relative phase. The model is versatile enough to realize both large-field and small-field inflation. We show that, in a model with two sinusoidal potentials, the predicted values of the spectral index and tensor-to-scalar ratio lie within the $1\sigma$ region of the Planck data. In particular, there is no lower bound on the decay constants in contrast to the original natural inflation. We also show that, in a certain limit, multi-natural inflation can be approximated by a hilltop quartic inflation model.

  1. Extra-dimensional Origins of Chemical Potentials at the Cosmological Collider

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A rolling 5D gauge-field inflaton acts as an extra-dimensional electric field, creating charged and neutral KK particles far heavier than H and yielding observable oscillatory signatures.

    A 300-mode Kaluza-Klein axion tower is proposed as a unified inflaton and dark-matter sector, but the lightest state's quoted lifetime contradicts the paper's own decay-rate formula.

    A two-field chaotic inflation model with a kinetic-potential coupling can in principle lower ns and r, but the paper's analytic formulas miscompute the correction and its quoted parameter ranges are fitted rather than...
