We derive the reconstruction formulae for the inflation model with the non-minimal derivative coupling term. If reconstructing the potential from the tensor-to-scalar ratio, we could obtain the potential without using the high friction limit. As an example, we reconstruct the potential from the parametrization $r=8alpha/(N+beta)^{gamma}$, which is a general form of the $alpha$-attractor. The reconstructed potential has the same asymptotic behavior as the T- and E-model if we choose $gamma=2$ and $alphall1$. We also discuss the constraints from the reheating phase preceding the radiation domination by assuming the parameter $w_{re}$ of state equation during reheating is a constant. The scale of big-bang nucleosynthesis could put a up limit on $n_s$ if $w_{re}=2/3$ and a low limit on $n_s$ if $w_{re}=1/6$.

We derive the general formulae for the the scalar and tensor spectral tilts to the second order for the inflationary models with non-minimally derivative coupling without taking the high friction limit. The non-minimally kinetic coupling to Einstein tensor brings the energy scale in the inflationary models down to be sub-Planckian. In the high friction limit, the Lyth bound is modified with an extra suppression factor, so that the field excursion of the inflaton is sub-Planckian. The inflationary models with non-minimally derivative coupling are more consistent with observations in the high friction limit. In particular, with the help of the non-minimally derivative coupling, the quartic power law potential is consistent with the observational constraint at 95% CL.

We derive a lower bound on the field excursion for the tachyon inflation, which is determined by the amplitude of the scalar perturbation and the number of $e$-folds before the end of inflation. Using the relation between the observables like $n_s$ a nd $r$ with the slow-roll parameters, we reconstruct three classes of tachyon potentials. The model parameters are determined from the observations before the potentials are reconstructed, and the observations prefer the concave potential. We also discuss the constraints from the reheating phase preceding the radiation domination for the three classes of models by assuming the equation of state parameter $w_{re}$ during reheating is a constant. Depending on the model parameters and the value of $w_{re}$, the constraints on $N_{re}$ and $T_{re}$ are different. As $n_s$ increases, the allowed reheating epoch becomes longer for $w_{re}=-1/3$, 0 and $1/6$ while the allowed reheating epoch becomes shorter for $w_{re}=2/3$.
The predictions of standard Higgs inflation in the framework of the metric formalism yield a tensor-to-scalar ratio $r sim 10^{-3}$ which lies well within the expected accuracy of near-future experiments $ sim 10^{-4}$. When the Palatini formalism is employed, the predicted values of $r$ get highly-suppressed $rsim 10^{-12}$ and consequently a possible non-detection of primordial tensor fluctuations will rule out only the metric variant of the model. On the other hand, the extremely small values predicted for $r$ by the Palatini approach constitute contact with observations a hopeless task for the foreseeable future. In this work, we propose a way to remedy this issue by extending the action with the inclusion of a generalized non-minimal derivative coupling term between the inflaton and the Einstein tensor of the form $m^{-2}(phi) G_{mu u} abla^{mu}phi abla^{ u}phi$. We find that with such a modification, the Palatini predictions can become comparable with the ones obtained in the metric formalism, thus providing ample room for the model to be in contact with observations in the near future.
In this paper we investigate the so called phantom barrier crossing issue in a cosmological model based in the scalar-tensor theory with non-minimal derivative coupling to the Einsteins tensor. Special attention will be paid to the physical bounds on the squared sound speed. The numeric results are geometrically illustrated by means of a qualitative procedure of analysis that is based on the mapping of the orbits in the phase plane onto the surfaces that represent physical quantities in the extended phase space, that is: the phase plane complemented with an additional dimension relative to the given physical parameter. We find that the cosmological model based in the non-minimal derivative coupling theory -- this includes both the quintessence and the pure derivative coupling cases -- has serious causality problems related with superluminal propagation of the scalar and tensor perturbations. Even more disturbing is the finding that, despite that the underlying theory is free of the Ostrogradsky instability, the corresponding cosmological model is plagued by the Laplacian (classical) instability related with negative squared sound speed. This instability leads to an uncontrollable growth of the energy density of the perturbations that is inversely proportional to their wavelength. We show that independent of the self-interaction potential, for the positive coupling the tensor perturbations propagate superluminally, while for the negative coupling a Laplacian instability arises. This latter instability invalidates the possibility for the model to describe the primordial inflation.
We construct a cosmological model from the inception of the Friedmann-Lem^aitre-Robertson-Walker metric into the field equations of the $f(R,L_m)$ gravity theory, with $R$ being the Ricci scalar and $L_m$ being the matter lagrangian density. The form alism is developed for a particular $f(R,L_m)$ function, namely $R/16pi +(1+sigma R)L_{m}$, with $sigma$ being a constant that carries the geometry-matter coupling. Our solutions are remarkably capable of evading the Big-Bang singularity as well as predict the cosmic acceleration with no need for the cosmological constant, but simply as a consequence of the geometry-matter coupling terms in the Friedmann-like equations.
