Inflationary phenomenology of quadratic gravity in the Palatini formulation

Angelos Lykkas

The theory of General Relativity was established on a spacetime manifold equipped with a metric tensor, , and the connection on identified…

Extended interactions in the Palatini- inflation

Angelos Lykkas, Kyriakos Tamvakis

The Palatini formulation of the Starobinsky model does not yield a propagating scalaron that can assume the role of the inflaton field as in the conventional metric formulation. In…

Palatini-Higgs inflation with non-minimal derivative coupling

Ioannis D. Gialamas, Alexandros Karam, Angelos Lykkas +1

The predictions of standard Higgs inflation in the framework of the metric formalism yield a tensor-to-scalar ratio which lies well within the expected accuracy of…

Equivalence of inflationary models between the metric and Palatini formulation of scalar-tensor theories

Laur Järv, Alexandros Karam, Aleksander Kozak +3

With a scalar field non-minimally coupled to curvature, the underlying geometry and variational principle of gravity - metric or Palatini - becomes important and makes a difference…

Constant-roll in the Palatini- models

Ignatios Antoniadis, Angelos Lykkas, Kyriakos Tamvakis

We consider models of a scalar field coupled to quadratic gravity in the framework of the Palatini formulation. The resulting Einstein-frame generalized -inflation e…

Single-field inflation in models with an term

Ignatios Antoniadis, Alexandros Karam, Angelos Lykkas +2

We present two cases where the addition of the term to an inflationary model leads to single-field inflation instead of two-field inflation as is usually the case. In both ca…
