Dynamical Analysis of Anisotropic Inflation

Understand

Inflaton coupling to a vector field via the $f^2(\phi)F_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\nu}$ term is used in several contexts in the literature, such as to generate primordial magnetic fields, to produce statistically anisotropic curvature perturbation, to support anisotropic inflation and to circumvent the $\eta$-problem.

• Here, I perform dynamical analysis of such a system allowing for most general Bianchi I initial conditions.
• I also confirm the stability of attractor equilibrium points in phase-space directions that had not been investigated before.
