Fast-roll solutions from two scalar fields inflation

Abstract

One common approach for cosmic inflation consists in couple Einstein's gravity with a scalar field, often referred to inflaton field. In order to derive analytic simple scenarios, we usually work in the slow-roll regime. In such an approximation one considers the scalar field potentials to be nearly flat. It is possible to directly generalize such an approach for hybrid inflationary models, where the inflaton sector is composed of two or more scalar fields. However, the Friedmann equations and the equations of motion for such hybrid models are often hard to be analytically solved. Another recent path to describe cosmic inflation is through the so-called fast-roll regime, where one considers exactly flat potentials. Our purpose in this work is to obtain solutions for a hybrid inflaton model in the fast-roll regime. Cosmological interpretations through the behavior of Hubble, slow-roll, and equation of state parameters are also presented.
