Gravitino problem in inflation driven by inflaton-polonyi Kähler coupling

We discuss the cosmological gravitino problem in inflation models in which the inflaton potential is constructed from Kähler potential rather than superpotential: a representative model is D3‾-induced geometric inflation. A critical ingredient in this type of models is the coupling of the inflaton a...
