Abstract
We investigate a possible inflationary scenario where the expansion of the universe is driven by a slow evolution of a homogeneous single scalar field, whose potential V (φ) is given by an unusual κ-generalized power law. Within the slow-roll approximation we obtain several of the main predictions of the model, as the scalar spectral index, the tensor-to-scalar ratio, the number of e-folds, and the local non-Gaussianity. We also show that this model admits a much wider set of solutions than the usual exponential approach, and that their theoretical predictions are contemplated by the observational data.
