Abstract

We discuss supergravity inflation in braneworld cosmology for the class of potentials [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text]. These minimal SUGRA models evade the [Formula: see text] problem due to a broken shift symmetry and can easily accommodate the observational constraints. In the high energy regime [Formula: see text], the numerical predictions and approximate analytic formulas are given for the scalar spectral index [Formula: see text] and tensor-to-scalar ratio [Formula: see text]. The models with smaller [Formula: see text] are preferred while the models with larger [Formula: see text] are out of the [Formula: see text] region. Remarkably, the [Formula: see text] correction to the energy density in Friedmann equation results in sub-Planckian inflaton excursions [Formula: see text].
