Inflation driven by repulsive-like primordial black holes

We review a new natural inflationary mechanism operated by repulsive-like primordial black holes (PBHs). In particular, working within the ``Swiss - Cheese" cosmological framework, we find that a Universe filled with PBHs, whose spacetime metric presents a repulsive-like behaviour, is characterised by an early quasi-de-Sitter cosmic expansion phase. Notably, for light PBHs with $m<5\times {10}^8\mathrm{g}$, evaporating before Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN), one is met with an exponential inflationary phase with graceful exit and reheating proceeding through PBH evaporation. Furthermore, one finds as well that PBHs with $m\sim {10}^{12}\mathrm{g}$ and abundances $0.107<{\mathrm{\Omega }}_{\mathrm{P}\mathrm{B}\mathrm{H}}^{\mathrm{e}\mathrm{q}}<0.5$ near matter-radiation equality can act as an early dark energy component, easing in this way naturally the Hubble tension.
