Weyl R 2 inflation with an emergent Planck scale
Abstract We study inflation in Weyl gravity. The original Weyl quadratic gravity, based on Weyl conformal geometry, is a theory invariant under the Weyl symmetry of gauged scale transformations. In this theory the Planck scale (M) emerges as the scale where this symmetry is broken spontaneously by a...
