INFLATION IN STRING THEORY

Recent developments in string theory such as flux compactifications and moduli stabilization by non-perturbative effects of D-branes provided a solid framework where we discuss the realization of inflation in string theories. We review two prototype models, modular inflation and brane inflation, and...

Description
Summary:Recent developments in string theory such as flux compactifications and moduli stabilization by non-perturbative effects of D-branes provided a solid framework where we discuss the realization of inflation in string theories. We review two prototype models, modular inflation and brane inflation, and discuss their observational consequences and outlook.
