Description
I will discuss the problem of scale hierarchies in particle physics and cosmology and propose ways to address it. In particular I will present a framework of natural inflation within supergravity dubbed `inflation by supersymmetry breaking’. The main idea is to identify the inflaton with the superpartner of the goldstino, in the presence of a gauged R-symmetry that may contain the R-parity of the supersymmetric Standard Model.
