We revisit the recently proposed mechanism of Geometric Inflation. On general grounds, we show that obtaining the right amount of inflation demands an exceedingly large initial energy density. We introduce a scalar field and study the combined action of both mechanisms. Besides fixing the aforementioned issue, a cascading process occurs whose last step seems undistinguishable from ordinary large field inflation. Strikingly, the scalar field remains approximately constant while Geometric Inflation rules the dynamics. This ultimately leads to the possibility of reducing the initial value of the scalar field and its excursion. We discuss the main features of this hybrid scenario.

Spectral Bifurcations in Quasinormal Modes of Regular BTZ Black Holes
For regular BTZ black holes from an infinite Lovelock tower, scalar quasinormal modes bifurcate from complex BTZ branches into purely imaginary branches as the regularization length ℓ grows, producing mode switching a...

Holographic explorations of regular black holes in pure gravity
Regular, asymptotically AdS black holes are shown to exist in pure quasi-topological gravity, and their thermodynamics, quasinormal modes, Wilson loops, and a Type IIB field redefinition map are worked out.
