Inflation from non-minimally coupled scalar field in loop quantum cosmology

Understand

The FRW model with non-minimally coupled massive scalar field has been investigated in LQC framework.

• Considered form of the potential and coupling allows applications to Higgs driven inflation.
• Out of two frames used in the literature to describe such systems: Jordan and Einstein frame, the latter one is applied.
• Specifically, we explore the idea of the Einstein frame being the natural 'environment' for quantization and the Jordan picture having an emergent nature.
