Cyclic Universe in Model with Non-positively Defined Higgs Potential    [PDF]

I. Ya. Aref'eva, N. V. Bulatov, R. V. Gorbachev

We study dynamics of a scalar field with the non-positively defined Higgs potential non-minimally coupled to gravity. We find a solution corresponding to the cyclic Universe and calculate a period of oscillations. Upon a special choice of parameters we conclude that some interval of the evolution of the cyclic solution can represent an inflationary stage of the Universe evolution.
