抄録

A Galileon-like nonlinear self-interaction (∂φ)2 □φ generally leads to a enhanced friction during inflation, by which even steep potentials for the standard inflation can drive cosmic acceleration. However if the Galileon term is dominant by the end of inflation, this can affect the field oscillation during reheating and the scalar propagation speed squared c2s can be negative, which leads to the instability of small-scale perturbations. For chaotic inflation and natural inflation we clarify the parameter space in which the field oscillates coherently during reheating. Moreover we place observational constraints of the scalar spectral index ns and the tensor-to-scalar ratio r.
