We analyse one-loop radiative corrections to the inflationa ry potential in the theory, where inflation is driven by the St andard Model Higgs field. We show that inflation is possible provided the Higgs mass mH lies in the interval mmin < mH < mmax, where mmin = [136.7 + (mt− 171.2)× 1.95] GeV, mmax = [184.5 + (mt− 171.2)× 0.5] GeV and mt is the mass of the top quark. In the renormalization scheme associated with the Einstein frame the predictions of the spectral index of scalar fluctuati ons and of the tensor-to-scalar ratio practically do not depend on the Higgs mass within the admitted region and are equal to ns = 0.97 and r = 0.0034 correspondingly.

- Higgs inflation with loop corrections in the Palatini formulation (2017, methodology): “Differences have been found between treatments where renormalisation prescriptions are applied in different frames [46, 47, 49, 51], but this may be due to not matching the renormalisation scales and integration measures in the different frames consistently [54, 61, 96, 104].”
