A Bumpy Start to a Smooth Ride: Onset of Inflation amid Backreaction from Inhomogeneities
Jolyon K. Bloomfield, Patrick Fitzpatrick, Kiriakos Hilbert +1
We analyze the onset of inflation for a simple single-field model when the system begins with significant inhomogeneities on length-scales shorter than the initial Hubble radius. W…

Nonlinear Dynamics of Preheating after Multifield Inflation with Nonminimal Couplings
Rachel Nguyen, Jorinde van de Vis, Evangelos I. Sfakianakis +2
We study the post-inflation dynamics of multifield models involving nonminimal couplings using lattice simulations to capture significant nonlinear effects like backreaction and re…
