Inflation (cosmology)

... Kazanas (1980) called this phase of the early Universe 'de Sitter's phase.' The name 'inflation' was given by Guth (1981). ... Guth himself did not refer to work of Kazanas until he published a book on the subject under the title 'The inflationary universe: the quest for a new theory of cosmic origin' (1997), where he apologizes for not having referenced the work of Kazanas and of others, related to inflation.
