Initial conditions in chaotic inflation with modified gravity

Evolution in chaotic inflationary models begins at a high energy density with semi-classical initial conditions presumably consistent with a universal quantum nature of all the fundamental interactions: each quantum contributes the same amount to the energy density. There is an upper limit on this a...
