Article history: We explore trace-anomaly driven inflation in modified gravity. It is explicitly shown that in T 2 teleparallel Received 29 January 2014 gravity, the de Sitter inflation can occur, although quasi de Sitter inflation happens in R2 gravity. Accepted 20 February 2014 Furthermore, we investigate the influence of the trace anomaly on inflation. It is found that in f (T ) Available online 26 February 2014 gravity, the de Sitter inflation can end because it becomes unstable due to the trace anomaly, whereas Editor: J. Hisano also in higher derivative gravity, the de Sitter inflation can be realized and it will be over owing to the trace anomaly for smaller parameter regions in comparison with those in . The instability of the de Sitter inflation in T 2 gravity and R2 gravity (both with taking account of the trace anomaly) is examined. In addition, we study trace-anomaly driven inflation in minimal massive bigravity, where the contribution from the massive acts as negative . It is demonstrated that the de Sitter inflation can occur and continue for long enough duration. © 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
