“…In the limit where h or χ feel the vacuum expectation value of s as a constant mass term, one obtains Starobinsky inflation and Higgs ξ-inflation [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]: agravity dictates how they can hold above the Planck scale. Leaving a full analysis to a future work, we here want to explore the possibility that the inflaton is the field s that dynamically generates the Planck scale, as discussed in section 3.…”
