Abstract： We present a new exact solution to Einstein's equations that describes the evolution of inflationary universe models. The inflation is driven by the evolution of a scalar field with an approximate two-loop four-dimensional string potential. In this scenario, the inflation began immediately after the epoch governed by quantum gravity and therefore there is no initial singularity. The successful inflation scenario is expected to appear only at two-loop order. For a1/|a2|≥90, the spectral index ns of the scalar density fluctuations lies well inside the limits set by the cosmic background explorer satellite and the gravitational wave spectral index is ng ≈1.
