Nonsingular Cosmology from an Unstable Higgs Field
Robert H. Brandenberger, Yi-Fu Cai, Youping Wan +1
The observed value of the Higgs mass indicates an instability of the Higgs scalar at large energy scales, and hence also at large field values. In the context of early universe cos…

Cosmology of the Spinor Emergent Universe and Scale-invariant Perturbations
Yi-Fu Cai, Youping Wan, Xinmin Zhang
A nonsingular emergent universe cosmology can be realized by a nonconventional spinor field as first developed in \cite{Cai:2012yf}. We study the mechanisms of generating scale-inv…
