Magnetic fields from inflation?
read the original abstract
We consider the possibility of generation of the seeds of primordial magnetic field on inflation and show that the effect of the back reaction of this field can be very important. Assuming that back reaction does not spoil inflation we find a rather strong restriction on the amplitude of the primordial seeds which could be generated on inflation. Namely, this amplitude recalculated to the present epoch cannot exceed $10^{-32}G$ in $Mpc$ scales. This field seems to be too small to be amplified to the observable values by galactic dynamo mechanism.

Inflation with vector fields revisited: non-Gaussianities
In kinetically coupled vector inflation, the bispectrum in the large-h regime exhibits competing local and flattened non-Gaussian signals with distinct h scalings that distinguish vector-supported dynamics.
