dc.descriptionWe briefly summarize and update a class of inflationary models from the early eighties based on a quartic (Coleman-Weinberg) potential for a gauge singlet scalar (inflaton) field. For vacuum energy scales comparable to the grand unification scale, the scalar spectral index n_s=0.94-0.97, in very good agreement with the WMAP three year results. The tensor to scalar ratio r<~0.14, while alpha=dn/dlnk is =~-10^-3. An SO(10) version naturally explains the observed baryon asymmetry via non-thermal leptogenesis.
