abstract
We present a new mechanism for inflation which exhibits a speed limit on scalar motion, generating accelerated expansion even on a steep potential. This arises from explicitly integrating out the short modes of additional fields coupled to the inflaton $\phi$ via a dimension six operator, yielding an expression for the effective action which includes a nontrivial (logarithmic) function of $(\partial\phi)^2$. The speed limit appears at the branch cut of this logarithm arising in a large flavor expansion, similarly to the square root branch cut in DBI inflation arising in a large color expansion. Finally, we describe observational constraints on the parameters of this model.

Exploiting network topology in brain-scale simulations of spiking neural networks
In distributed spiking-network simulations, synchronization waiting time—not raw communication—is the bottleneck, and area-aware mapping that communicates long-range spikes less often reduces runtime by up to 42%.
