abstract
We study preheating in the Palatini formalism with a quadratic inflaton potential and an added $\alpha R^2$ term. In such models, the oscillating inflaton field repeatedly returns to the plateau of the Einstein frame potential, on which the tachyonic instability fragments the inflaton condensate within less than an e-fold. We find that tachyonic preheating takes place when $\alpha \gtrsim 10^{13}$ and that the energy density of the fragmented field grows with the rate $\Gamma/H \approx 0.011 \times \alpha^{0.31}$. The model extends the family of plateau models with similar preheating behaviour. Although it contains non-canonical quartic kinetic terms in the Einstein frame, we show that, in the first approximation, these can be neglected during both preheating and inflation.

Inflaton Self Resonance, Oscillons, and Gravitational Waves in Small Field Polynomial Inflation
For sufficiently small phi0 (below about 0.02 mPl), the inflaton condensate in this polynomial model fragments into long-lived oscillons, producing MHz-GHz gravitational waves and possibly seeding light primordial bla...

Inflationary assessment of $F(\mathcal{R},\tilde{\mathcal{R}})$ Einstein-Cartan models
Adding cubic Holst-invariant terms to F(R,R̃) Einstein-Cartan inflation models systematically lowers the predicted spectral index n_s and tensor-to-scalar ratio r, restoring data compatibility in parameter regions whe...

$\tilde\xi$-attractors in metric-affine gravity
A new class of metric-affine inflationary models, the ξ-tilde-attractors, reproduces Starobinsky inflation as a universal attractor in two strong-coupling limits.

Palatini Linear Attractors Are Back in ACTion
In Palatini gravity, quadratic potentials with a linear non-minimal coupling or linear potentials with an αR^2 term can match the ACT spectral index while keeping the tensor-to-scalar ratio below current limits.

Large Field Polynomial Inflation in Palatini $f(R,\phi)$ Gravity
Large-field polynomial inflation in Palatini f(R, phi) gravity can match Planck and BICEP/Keck data over broad parameter regions, and a negative R-squared coupling can suppress the tensor-to-scalar ratio to CMB-S4 levels.
