Random Potentials and Cosmological Attractors

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that inflation can be achieved in theories with random potentials if at least one field has a non-minimal kinetic term, aligning with observational data through cosmological attractor models.

Contribution

It introduces a novel approach to realizing inflation in random potential theories by incorporating non-minimal kinetic terms akin to $ ext{alpha}$-attractors.

Findings

Inflation is achievable with random potentials and non-minimal kinetic terms.

Agreement with observational data is naturally obtained.

The approach extends the class of viable inflationary models.

Abstract

I show that the problem of realizing inflation in theories with random potentials of a limited number of fields can be solved, and agreement with the observational data can be naturally achieved if at least one of these fields has a non-minimal kinetic term of the type used in the theory of cosmological $\alpha$-attractors.
