Loop Blow-up Inflation: An Overview

Suk\c{r}ti Bansal

String loop corrections to the Kähler potential generate a power-law plateau that enables viable blow-up inflation at large field values.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

We argue that these corrections, previously assumed avoidable, are in fact generically present and qualitatively alter the original non-perturbative picture: they invalidate slow-roll near the minimum and instead generate a new slow-roll regime at larger field values, where the scalar potential transitions from an exponential to a power-law plateau.

C2weakest assumption

The assumption that string loop corrections to the Kähler potential take a form that generically produces a power-law plateau at large field values without other effects dominating, and that the three SM-location scenarios exhaust the relevant cases for observational comparison.

C3one line summary

String loop corrections in blow-up inflation generate a power-law plateau at large fields, raising the tensor-to-scalar ratio while keeping all three Standard Model location scenarios consistent with latest observations after updating one coefficient for dark radiation bounds.
