Warm inflation, its different particle physics model implementations, and the implications of
dissipative particle production for its cosmology are reviewed. First, we briefly present the …

Warm inflation has normalized two ideas in cosmology, that in the early universe the initial
primordial density perturbations generally could be of classical rather than quantum origin …

We revisit the possibility that the stochastic common-spectrum process recently detected by
the NANOGrav pulsar timing array experiment could be due to primordial gravitational …

We study the implications of the recently proposed Trans-Planckian censorship conjecture
(TCC) for early Universe cosmology and in particular inflationary cosmology. The TCC leads …

Warm inflation seems to be the most befitting single-field slow-roll inflation scenario in the
context of the recently proposed swampland criteria. We investigate the constraints these …

Warm natural inflation is studied for the case of the original cosine potential. The radiation
bath during inflation induces a dissipation (friction) rate in the equation of motion for the …

We present WarmSPy, a numerical code in Python designed to solve for the perturbations'
equations in warm inflation models and compute the corresponding scalar power spectrum …

This volume summarizes the many alternatives and extensions to Einstein's General Theory
of Relativity, and shows how symmetry principles can be applied to identify physically viable …

The recently proposed swampland criteria aim to evade any (meta-) stable de Sitter
constructions within string landscapes, making it difficult to accommodate accelerating …

It has very recently been realized that coupling branes to higher dimensional quantum
gravity theories and considering the consistency of what lives on the branes, one is able to …
