Slow-roll inflationary scenario is considered in noncanonical scalar field model supposing a power-law function for kinetic term and using two formalisms. In the first approach, the potential is picked out as a power-law function, that is, the most common approach in studying inflation. Hamilton-Jacobi approach is selected as the second formalism, so that the Hubble parameter is introduced as a function of scalar field instead of the potential. Employing the last observational data, the free parameters of the model are constrained, and the predicted form of the potential and attractor behavior of the model are studied in detail.

We investigate the ability of the exponential power-law inflation to be a phenomenologically correct model of the early universe. We study General Relativity (GR) scalar cosmology equations in Ivanov–Salopek–Bond (or Hamilton–Jacobi like) representation where the Hubble parameter H is the function of a scalar field ϕ. Such approach admits calculation of the potential for given H(ϕ) and consequently reconstruction of f(R) gravity in parametric form. By this manner the Starobinsky potential and non-minimal Higgs potential (and consequently the corresponding f(R) gravity) were reconstructed using constraints on the model’s parameters. We also consider methods for generalising the obtained solutions to the case of chiral cosmological models and scalar-tensor gravity. Models based on the quadratic relationship between the Hubble parameter and the function of the non-minimal interaction of the scalar field and curvature are also considered. Comparison to observation (PLANCK 2018) data shows that all models under consideration give correct values for the scalar spectral index and tensor-to-scalar ratio under a wide range of exponential-power-law model’s parameters.

We examine inflation in [Formula: see text] theory, where a scalar field is coupled to gravity. We have constructed [Formula: see text] models using exponential and power law potentials and study inflation for these models, which can support the early-time acceleration with a useful cosmological constant at high curvature. We have calculated the slow-roll parameters, scalar-to-tensor ratio, and spectral index for these models and analyzed them graphically to check the viability according to recent observational data. We have also presented the evolution of effective equation of state and energy density.

Cosmological Solutions

Late time cosmological solutions for scalar field model with kinetic and Gauss–Bonnet couplings are considered. The quintom scenario is realized with and without Big Rip singularity. We find that under specific choice of the Gauss–Bonnet coupling, the model considerably simplifies, giving rise to solutions where the kinetic term is proportional to the square of the Hubble parameter. This allows to reconstruct the model for a suitable cosmological evolution. We considered a solution that matches the observed behavior of the equation of state, while Big Rip singularity may be present or absent, depending on the parameters of the solution. Evolutionary scenarios known as Little Rip, have also been considered.

The Stability

We examine whether an extended scenario of a two-scalar-field model, in which a mixed kinetic term of canonical and phantom scalar fields is involved, admits the Bianchi type I metric, which is homogeneous but anisotropic spacetime, as its power-law solutions. Then, we analyze the stability of the anisotropic power-law solutions to see whether these solutions respect the cosmic no-hair conjecture or not during the inflationary phase. In addition, we will also investigate a special scenario, where the pure kinetic terms of canonical and phantom fields disappear altogether in field equations, to test again the validity of cosmic no-hair conjecture. As a result, the cosmic no-hair conjecture always holds in both these scenarios due to the instability of the corresponding anisotropic inflationary solutions.

In this paper, we will discuss cosmological models using Bianchi type I for anisotropic fluid in [Formula: see text] theory of gravity which involves scalar potential. For this purpose, we consider power law assumptions of coupling function and scalar field along with the proportionality condition of expansion and shear scalars. We choose two [Formula: see text] models and obtain exact solutions of field equations in both cases. For these constructed models, the behavior of different physical quantities like EoS parameter, self-interacting potential as well as deceleration and skewness parameters are explored and illustrated graphically for the feasible ranges of free parameters. It is concluded that anisotropic fluid approaches isotropy in later cosmic times for both models.

Warm generalized Chaplygin gas inflation is being studied by assuming power-law plateau and inverse symmetric potentials with standard scalar field model. We consider strong dissipative regime with generalized dissipative coefficient and extract the various inflationary parameters such as scalar power spectrum, spectral index, tensor-to-scalar ratio and running of spectral index. It is found that both inflationary potentials favor the strong dissipative regime. Also, we construct the [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] (running of spectral index versus spectral index) and [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] (tensor-to-scalar ratio versus spectral index) planes and found that the trajectories of these planes favor WMAP 7 [Formula: see text] WMAP 9 and latest Planck data.

In the framework of the braneworld Randall–Sundrum type II model, we investigate an inflationary scalar model in the high-energy regime. In this regime, the slow-roll parameters and the perturbation spectrum of the model are derived. The corresponding results are dealt with according to the known observational data. Then the solutions to the equations of motion on the brane are given.

Abstract We study chaotic inflation with a Galileon-like self-interaction $$G(\phi ,X)\Box \phi $$G(ϕ,X)□ϕ, where $$G(\phi ,X)\propto X^{n}$$G(ϕ,X)∝Xn. General conditions required for successful inflation are deduced and discussed from the background and cosmological perturbations under slow-roll approximation. Interestingly, it is found that in the regime where the Galileon term dominates over the standard kinetic term, the tensor-to-scalar ratio becomes significantly suppressed in comparison to the standard expression in General Relativity (GR). Particularly, we find the allowed range in the space of parameters characterizing the chaotic quadratic and quartic inflation models by considering the current observational data of Planck from the $$n_{\mathcal {S}}-r$$nS-r plane. Finally, we discuss about the issue if the Galileon term is dominant by the end of inflation, this can affect the field oscillation during reheating.

A model for noncommutative scalar fields coupled to gravity based on the generalization of the Moyal product is proposed. Solutions compatible with homogeneous and isotropic flat Robertson-Walker spaces to first non-trivial order in the perturbation of the star-product are presented. It is shown that in the context of a typical chaotic inflationary scenario, at least in the slow-roll regime, noncommutativity yields no observable effect.
