Warm inflation in Horndeski gravity

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate a class of Horndeski scalar-tensor theory of gravity for warm inflation. We present some models where the early-time acceleration is realized in the weak and in the strong dissipation regime. Cosmological perturbations are analyzed.
