Nonminimal Inflation on the Randall-Sundrum II Brane with Induced Gravity
We study an inflation model that inflaton field is non-minimally coupled to
the induced scalar curvature on the Randall-Sundrum (RS) II brane. We
investigate the effects of the non-minimal coupling on the inflationary
dynamics of this braneworld model. Our study shows that the number of e-folds
decreases by increasing the value of the non-minimal coupling. We compare our
model parameters with the minimal case and also with recent observational data.
In comparison with recent observation, we obtain a constraint on the values
that the non-minimal coupling attains.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure
On the dissipative non-minimal braneworld inflation
We study the effects of the non-minimal coupling on the dissipative dynamics
of the warm inflation in a braneworld setup, where the inflaton field is
non-minimally coupled to induced gravity on the warped DGP brane. We study with
details the effects of the non-minimal coupling and dissipation on the
inflationary dynamics on the normal DGP branch of this scenario in the
high-dissipation and high-energy regime. We show that incorporation of the
non-minimal coupling in this setup decreases the number of e-folds relative to
the minimal case. We also compare our model parameters with recent
observational data.Comment: 32 pages, 6 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Non-Minimal Warm Inflation and Perturbations on the Warped DGP Brane with Modified Induced Gravity
We construct a warm inflation model with inflaton field non-minimally coupled
to induced gravity on a warped DGP brane. We incorporate possible modification
of the induced gravity on the brane in the spirit of -gravity. We study
cosmological perturbations in this setup. In the case of two field inflation
such as warm inflation, usually entropy perturbations are generated. While it
is expected that in the case of one field inflation these perturbations to be
removed, we show that even in the absence of the radiation field, entropy
perturbations are generated in our setup due to non-minimal coupling and
modification of the induced gravity.Comment: 29 pages, 7 figures, Accepted by Gen. Rel Gravi
