E-models of inflation and primordial black holes
We propose and study the new (generalized) E-type α-attractor models of inflation, in order to include formation of primordial black holes (PBHs). The inflaton potential has a near-inflection point where slow-roll conditions are violated, thus leading to large scalar perturbations collapsing to PBHs...
