Hyperbolic Inflation in the Jordan Frame

We consider a multi-scalar field model in the Jordan frame, which can be seen as a two-scalar field model where the Brans–Dicke field interacts in the kinetic part with the second scalar field. This theory under a conformal transformation reduces to the hyperbolic inflation. We show that scaling sol...

Omschrijving
Samenvatting:We consider a multi-scalar field model in the Jordan frame, which can be seen as a two-scalar field model where the Brans–Dicke field interacts in the kinetic part with the second scalar field. This theory under a conformal transformation reduces to the hyperbolic inflation. We show that scaling solutions and the de Sitter universe are provided by the theory. In the study of asymptotic dynamics, we determine an attractor where all the fluid sources contribute in the cosmological fluid. This attractor is always a spiral, and it can be seen as the analogue of the hyperbolic inflation in the Jordan frame.
