摘要
We consider the Starobinsky inflation with a set of higher order corrections parametrised by two real coefficients lambda(1) , lambda(2). In the Einstein frame we have found a potential with the Starobinsky plateau, steep slope and possibly with an additional minimum, local maximum or a saddle point. We have identified three types of inflationary behaviour that may be generated in this model: i) inflation on the plateau, ii) at the local maximum ( topological inflation), iii) at the saddle point. We have found limits on parameters lambda(i) and initial conditions at the Planck scale which enable successful inflation and disable eternal inflation at the plateau. We have checked that the local minimum away from the GR vacuum is stable and that the field cannot leave it neither via quantum tunnelling nor via thermal corrections.
