Description/Abstract
We embed the supersymmetric standard model of hybrid inflation based on the next-to-minimal superpotential term λNHuHd supplemented by an inflaton term κφN2 into an extra-dimensional framework, in which all the Higgs fields and singlets live in the bulk, while all the matter fields live on the brane. All the parameters of the effective 4D model can then be naturally understood in terms of a fundamental (“string”) scale M*∼1013 GeV and a brane supersymmetry breaking scale 108 GeV, of the same order as the height of the inflaton potential during inflation. In particular, the very small Yukawa couplings λ∼κ∼10-10, necessary for the model to solve the strong CP problem and to generate the correct effective μ term after inflation, can be naturally understood in terms of volume suppression factors. The brane scalar masses are naturally of order a TeV while the bulk inflaton mass is naturally in the MeV range sufficient to satisfy the slow roll constraints. Curvature perturbations are generated after inflation from the isocurvature perturbations of the supersymmetric Higgs field as discussed in a companion paper.
