Szekeres universes with homogeneous scalar fields

Abstract We consider the existence of an “inflaton” described by an homogeneous scalar field in the Szekeres cosmological metric. The gravitational field equations are reduced to two families of solutions which describe the homogeneous Kantowski–Sachs spacetime and an inhomogeneous FLRW(-like) space...
