Inflationary Cosmology after Planck 2013
read the original abstract
I give a general review of inflationary cosmology and of its present status, in view of the 2013 data release by the Planck satellite. A specific emphasis is given to the new broad class of theories, the cosmological attractors, which have nearly model-independent predictions converging at the sweet spot of the Planck data in the (n_s,r) plane. I also discuss the problem of initial conditions for the theories favored by the Planck data.

Reconstructing inflationary features on large scales using genetic algorithm
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.

Cosmology of f(Q,L_m) gravity with Holographic Ricci Dark Energy: Early-Time Inflation and Late-Time Acceleration and RGUP Corrected Observables
A single f(Q, L_m) gravity model with HRDE produces Starobinsky-like inflation at high curvature and late-time acceleration, with RGUP corrections keeping n_s and r consistent with Planck while shifting the running of...

Inflationary Scenarios in $f(Q,\phi)$ Gravity with Scalar Field Coupling
In f(Q,φ) gravity with nonminimal coupling, De Sitter inflation works only for 10^{-3} ≲ ξ ≲ 10^{-2} while a Cosh model gives ns ≈ 0.965-0.967 and r ≈ 0.017-0.018 at N=60, matching observations.

String-inspired Gauss-Bonnet Gravity Inflation and ACT
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.
