abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel mechanism in $\mathbb{T}^2$-inflation to enhance the power spectrum large enough to seed primordial black holes (PBHs) formation. To accomplish this, we consider the coupling function between the inflaton field and $\mathbb{T}^2= T_{\mu \nu}T^{\mu \nu}$ term. PBHs formed within this scenario can contribute partially or entirely to dark matter (DM) abundance. Furthermore, the amplification in the scalar power spectrum will concurrently produce significant scalar-induced gravitational waves (SIGWs) as a second-order effect. In addition, the energy spectrum associated with SIGWs can be compatible with the recent NANOGrav 15-year stochastic gravitational wave detection and fall into the sensitivity range of other forthcoming GW observatories.

Baryon asymmetry from higher-order matter contributions in gravity
A T^2-dependent coupling between the derivative of T_mu nu T^mu nu and the baryon current can generate the observed baryon asymmetry in GR and f(R,T^2) gravity, at the cost of fitted parameters.

Probing Primordial Black Hole Mergers in Clusters with Pulsar Timing Data
Bayesian analysis of IPTA DR2 shows scalar-induced gravitational waves dominate and PBH merger backgrounds are strongly disfavored relative to an astrophysical SMBHB explanation.

Constraining inflation with nonminimal derivative coupling with the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array third data release
Using PPTA DR3 data, the authors report 90% constraints on the nonminimal derivative coupling inflation parameters φc, ωL, and σ, with Bayes factor 0.9 against a power-law background.

Pre-Big-Bang Cosmology Cannot Explain NANOGrav 15-year Signal
Pre-Big Bang string cosmology cannot explain the NANOGrav 15-year signal; a power-law spectrum is preferred by a Bayes factor of about 468.

Tilt and Tensor-to-Scalar Ratio in Multi-Scalar Field Inflation: Non-Sum-Separable Case
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...
