Cosmic inflation driven by the vacuum energy associated with the $D$ term of a supersymmetric Abelian gauge group and a possible existence of long-range force mediated by an ultralight gauge boson ${Z}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ are two extreme examples of models based on extra $U(1)$ symmetries. Large vacuum energy sets the scale of inflation while the scales of long-range forces induced by anomaly free extra gauged $U(1)$ symmetries are constrained by neutrino oscillations, binary pulsar timings, and…
