Natural Inflation with a negative cosmological constant

Chia-Min Lin, Naoto Maki, Kazunori Kohri

In this work, we investigate a cosmic inflation model based on a cosine-type potential with a negative cosmological constant. This model originates from a classical solution of the…

Exponential Quintessence Model: Analytical Quantification of the Fine-Tuning Problem in Dark Energy

Naoto Maki, Kazunori Kohri

In this paper, we investigate a quintessence field with an exponential potential motivated by the suggestion of time-varying dark energy from the DESI galaxy survey. Assuming a kin…

Exponential Quintessence: Analytic Relationship Between the Current Equation of State Parameter and the Potential Parameter

Naoto Maki, Kazunori Kohri

Motivated by the indications of time-varying dark energy equation of state reported from DESI, we investigate a quintessence model with an exponential potential $V_0 e^{-λϕ/m_{\m…

Simple Analytical Solutions of the Wheeler-DeWitt Equation in the Classical Hamilton-Jacobi Limit

Naoto Maki, Chia-Min Lin, Kazunori Kohri

We investigate the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for a flat, homogeneous, and isotropic Universe containing a canonical scalar field with a potential. We show that under the constraint $…

Creation of Viscous Dark Energy by the Hubble Flow: Comparison with SNe Ia Master Sample Binned Data

Iolanda Navone, Maria Giovanna Dainotti, Elisa Fazzari +3

We study a family of cosmological models featuring dynamical dark energy (DE), based on the idea that the creation of its constituents arises from the gravitational field of the ex…
