Superconformal generalizations of the Starobinsky model

arXiv:1306.3214 · doi:10.1088/1475-7516/2013/06/028

Abstract

We find a way to represent the Starobinsky model in terms of a simple conformally invariant theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking. We also present a superconformal theory, which, upon spontaneous breaking of the superconformal symmetry, provides a consistent supergravity generalization of the Starobinsky model.
