Higgs G-inflation
  A new class of inflation models within the context of G-inflation is
proposed, in which the standard model Higgs boson can act as an inflaton thanks
to Galileon-like non-linear derivative interaction. The generated primordial
density perturbation is shown to be consistent with the present observational
data. We also make a general discussion on potential-driven G-inflation models,
and find a new consistency relation between the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ and
the tensor spectral index $n_T$, $r = -32 \sqrt{6}n_T / 9$, which is crucial in
discriminating the present models from standard inflation with a canonical
kinetic term.
