abstract

We study an inflationary scenario with a vector field coupled with an inflaton field and show that the inflationary universe is endowed with anisotropy for a wide range of coupling functions. This anisotropic inflation is a tracking solution where the energy density of the vector field follows that of the inflaton field irrespective of initial conditions. We find a universal relation between the anisotropy and a slow-roll parameter of inflation. Our finding has observational implications and gives a counter example to the cosmic no-hair conjecture.

Bianchi-I Cosmology with Radiation in Asymptotically Safe Gravity

gr-qc · 2026-04-23 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

In asymptotically safe gravity, radiation-filled Bianchi-I cosmologies show quantum corrections that soften anisotropy, while magnetic fields lead to persistent Kasner anisotropy without Lambda but isotropic de Sitter decay with nonzero Lambda.

Inflation with vector fields revisited: non-Gaussianities

hep-th · 2026-05-27 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

In kinetically coupled vector inflation, the bispectrum in the large-h regime exhibits competing local and flattened non-Gaussian signals with distinct h scalings that distinguish vector-supported dynamics.
