Unification models with reheating via primordial black holes    [PDF]

J. C. Hidalgo, L. Arturo Urena-Lopez, Andrew R. Liddle

We study the possibility of reheating the universe through the evaporation of primordial black holes created at the end of inflation. This is shown to allow for the unification of inflation and dark matter under the dynamics of a single scalar field. We determine the necessary conditions to recover the standard Big Bang by the time of nucleosynthesis after reheating through black holes.
