Inflation with Holographic Dark Energy

Abstract

We investigate the corrections of the holographic dark energy to inflation paradigm. We study the evolution of the holographic dark energy in the inflationary universe in detail, and carry out a model-independent analysis on the holographic dark energy correction to the primordial scalar power spectrum. It turns out that the corrections generically make the spectrum redder. To be consistent with the experimental data, there must be a upper bound on the reheating temperature. We also discuss the corrections due to different choices of the infrared cutoff.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figures, v2: references added, a fast-roll discussion added. v3: typos corrected. v4: final version to appear in NP
