Inflation without a trace of lambda
Abstract We generalise Einstein’s formulation of the traceless Einstein equations to f(R) gravity theories. In the case of the vacuum traceless Einstein equations, we show that a non-constant Weyl tensor leads via a conformal transformation to a dimensionally homogeneous (‘no-scale’) theory in the c...
