Description
In this talk, I will discuss the theoretical set up and the phenomenology of inflation in brane models and in unified field theories. I will pay particular attention to inflation in theories which predict massive neutrinos, and will show that baryogenesis via leptogenesis can take place both during reheating and from cosmic string decays. CMB and neutrinos experiments are a powerful tool to test the underlying particle physics parameters.
