It is shown that a positive non-minimal coupling of the Higgs field to gravity can solve the two problems in inflation models in which postinflationary universe is dominated by an energy with stiff equation of state such as a kination, namely, overproduction of gravitons in gravitational reheating scenario, and overproduction of curvature perturbation from Higgs condensation. Furthermore, we argue that the non-minimal coupling parameter can be constrained more stringently with the progress in observations of large-scale structure and cosmic microwave background.

Nonthermal leptogenesis via cosmological gravitational particle production is tested by inflationary gravitational waves
Certain inflation models produce right-handed neutrinos via gravitational effects sufficient for leptogenesis to explain the baryon asymmetry, testable by inflationary gravitational waves.

Stochastic Gravitational Waves from Modulated Reheating
A spectator scalar in modulated reheating with large Higgs-like couplings generates detectable scalar-induced stochastic gravitational waves for BBO and DECIGO, but only outside perturbative low-energy extrapolations.
