Cosmological inflation driven by a scalar torsion function

Abstract A viable model for inflation driven by a torsion function in a Friedmann background is presented. The scalar spectral index in the interval $$0.92\lesssim n_{s}\lesssim 0.97$$ 0.92 ≲ n s ≲ 0.97 is obtained in order to satisfy the initial conditions for inflation. The post inflationary phase...
