Abstract

We study the cosmic no-hair theorem for anistropic Bianchi models which admit an inflationary solution with a scalar field. It is found that the form of the potential does not affect the evolution in the inflationary era while the late time behavior is controlled by the constant additive factor in the potential for the inflaton field.
