Composite dynamics and cosmology: inflation

Daris Samart, Chakrit Pongkitivanichkul, Phongpichit Channuie

Abstract

In this work, we review the composite dynamics in various models which can be efficiently used to study the mechanism of cosmic inflation. In the framework of single-field inflationary models, we consider the inflaton field emerging as a bound state stemming solely from the underlying fermionic degrees of freedom in various composite theories. Moreover, we constrain the number of e-foldings for composite models of inflation to obtain successful inflation and satisfy the observational data from Planck 2018, simultaneously. In addition, a set of cosmological parameters, e.g., the primordial spectral index n<inf>s</inf> and tensor-to-scalar ratio r, is constrained using the results reported by Planck 2018.
