Primeval acceleration and bounce conditions within induced gravity

TL;DR

This paper explores a model of induced gravity with Higgs potential in FLRW cosmology, demonstrating natural primeval acceleration, inflation, and avoidance of the Big Bang singularity through scalar-field dynamics.

Contribution

It introduces a novel induced gravity model with Higgs potential that naturally explains primeval acceleration and singularity avoidance in cosmology.

Findings

Scalar-field excitations act as quintessential components during inflation.

The model predicts violation of energy conditions during primeval acceleration.

Primeval universe conditions are consistent with inflationary scenarios.

Abstract

A model of induced gravity with Higgs potential is analysed for the FLRW cosmology. Conditions of acceleration and signatures for the primeval universe along with the inflation are discussed. It is shown that the scalar-field excitations act quintessentially within effective pressure terms for a negative deceleration parameter. The violation of energy conditions and primeval acceleration appears naturally in the present model in view of the notions for inflationary universe with the avoidance of the Big Bang singularity.
