Asymptotically Safe Non-Minimal Inflation
  We study the constraints imposed by the requirement of Asymptotic Safety on a
class of inflationary models with an inflaton field non-minimally coupled to
the Ricci scalar. The critical surface in the space of theories is determined
by the improved renormalization group flow which takes into account quantum
corrections beyond the one loop approximation. The combination of constraints
deriving from Planck observations and those from theory puts severe bounds on
the values of the parameters of the model and predicts a quite large tensor to
scalar ratio. We finally comment on the dependence of the results on the
definition of the infrared energy scale which parametrises the running on the
critical surface.
