WKB approximation for inflationary cosmological perturbations
A new method for predicting inflationary cosmological perturbations, based on the Wentzel-KramersBrillouin ~WKB! approximation, is presented. A general expression for the WKB scalar and tensor power spectra is derived. The main advantage of the new scheme of approximation is that it is valid even if the slow-roll conditions are violated. The method is applied to power-law inflation, which allow...
متن کاملAccurately Determining Inflationary Perturbations
Cosmic microwave anisotropy satellites promise extremely accurate measures of the amplitude of perturbations in the universe. We use a numerical code to test the accuracy of existing approximate expressions for the amplitude of perturbations produced by single-field inflation models. We find that the second-order Stewart– Lyth calculation gives extremely accurate results, typically better than ...

متن کاملInflationary Perturbations from Deformed CFT
We present a new method to calculate the spectrum of (slow-roll) inflationary perturbations, inspired by the conjectured dS/CFT correspondence. We show how the standard result for the spectrum of inflationary perturbations can be obtained from deformed CFT correlators, whose behavior is determined by the Callan-Symanzik equation. We discuss the possible advantages of this approach and end with ...
متن کاملOn Uniform Approximation of Rational Perturbations of Cauchy Integrals
Let [c, d] be an interval on the real line and μ be a measure of the form dμ = μ̇dω[c,d] with μ̇ = h~, where ~(t) = (t − c)c(d − t)d , αc, αd ∈ [0, 1/2), h is a Dini-continuous non-vanishing function on [c, d] with an argument of bounded variation, and ω[c,d] is the normalized arcsine distribution on [c, d]. Further, let p and q be two polynomials such that deg(p) < deg(q) and [c, d] ∩ z(q) = ∅, ...
