Description

I will discuss inflation driven by the Higgs field of the Standard Model. It will be argued that inflation is possible in a certain interval of Higgs masses. This range exceeds somewhat the interval of Higgs masses in which the Standard Model is a viable field theory all the way up to the Planck scale.
