Endlessly flat scalar potentials and α-attractors
We consider a minimally-coupled inflationary theory with a general scalar potential V(f(φ))=V(ξ∑k=1nλkφk) containing a stationary point of maximal order m. We show that asymptotically flat potentials can be associated to stationary points of infinite order and discuss the relation of our approach to...
