Implications of the primordial anisotropy for a scalar field with non-minimal kinetic coupling

Abstract

We consider a scalar field with a kinetic term non-minimally coupled to gravity in an anisotropic background. Various potentials for the scalar field are considered. By explicit examples, we show that how the anisotropy can change the dynamics of the scalar field compared with the isotropic background.
