Slow Roll

The potential between branes in a compact space obeys a modified Poisson equation. Although the Green's functions for simple spaces such as the torus are known, we illustrate the use of a well-established method from solid state physics that may be used to find the potential on a general compact space. This potential is relevant for inflationary scenarios, and in particular helps determine whether a given model satisfies the slow-roll conditions. We show that models with branes at small angles generally give enough inflation.
