8 Scalar fields nonminimally coupled to gravity Some remarks: A nonminimal scalar field is conformally equivalent to the minimal one possessing some effective potential V (φ) A behavior of the scalar field is encoded in the potential V (φ) The potential V (φ) is a very important ingredient of various cosmological models: a slowly varying potential behaves like an effective cosmological constat providing one or more than one inflationary phases. An appropriate choice of V (φ) is known as a problem of fine tuning of the cosmological constant.

46 Conclusions The non-minimal kinetic coupling provides an essentially new inflationary mechanism which does not need any fine-tuned potential. At early cosmological times the coupling κ-terms in the field equations are dominating and provide the quasi-de Sitter behavior of the scale factor: a(t) e Hκt with H κ = 1/ 9κ and κ sec 2 (or l κ κ 1/ cm) The model provides a natural mechanism of epoch change without any fine-tuned potential.
