Gauge-flation and cosmic no-hair conjecture

Abstract

Gauge-flation, inflation from non-Abelian gauge fields, was introduced in\n[1,2]. In this work, we study the cosmic no-hair conjecture in gauge-flation.\nStarting from Bianchi-type I cosmology and through analytic and numeric studies\nwe demonstrate that the isotropic FLRW inflation is an attractor of the\ndynamics of the theory and that the anisotropies are damped within a few\ne-folds, in accord with the cosmic no-hair conjecture.\n
