New Higgs Inflation in a No-Scale Supersymmetric SU(5) GUT

Abstract

Higgs inflation is attractive because it identifies the inflaton with the electroweak Higgs boson. In this work, we construct a new class of supersymmetric Higgs inflationary models in the no-scale supergravity with an SU(5) GUT group. Extending the no-scale Kahler potential and SU(5) GUT superpotential, we derive a generic potential for Higgs inflation that includes the quadratic monomial potential and a Starobinsky-type potential as special limits. This type of models can accommodate a wide range of the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r=O(10^{-3}-10^{-1})$, as well as a scalar spectral index $n_s\sim 0.96$.
