Constant-roll inflation with a complex scalar field (2405.08928v1)

Published 14 May 2024 in gr-qc and astro-ph.CO

Abstract: We consider inflation with a constant rate of rolling in which a complex scalar field plays the role of inflaton during the inflationary epoch. We implement the inflationary analysis for an accredited angular speed $\dot{\theta}$ which satisfies our dynamical equations. Scalar and tensorial perturbations generated in the framework of constant roll inflation with a complex field are studied. In this respect, we find analytically solutions to the gauge invariant fluctuations, with which an expression for the scalar power spectrum together with its scalar index spectral in this scenario were found. By comparing the obtained results with the observations coming from the cosmic microwave background anisotropies, the constraints on the parameters space of the model and also its predictions are analyzed and discussed.
