Effective Field Theory for Inflation
The methods of effective field theory are used to study generic theories of inflation with a single inflaton field. For scalar modes, the leading corrections to the R correlation function are found to be purely of the k-inflation type. For tensor modes the leading corrections to the correlation function arise from terms in the action that are quadratic in the curvature, including a parity-viola...
متن کاملDensity field in extended Lagrangian perturbation theory
We analyze the performance of a perturbation theory for nonlinear cosmological dynamics, based on the Lagrangian description of hydrodynamics. In our previous paper, we solved the hydrodynamic equations for a self-gravitating fluid with pressure, given by a polytropic equation of state, using a perturbation method. Then we obtained the first-order solutions in generic background universes and t...
متن کاملDensity perturbation in extended inflation
We examine the calculation of density perturbation at large scales in the inflationary scenario. The formula for its magnitude is reviewed from first principles and applied to the original model of extended inflation. Our estimate is an order of magnitude bigger than the earlier ones due to the difference in the time at which the primordial fluctuation is evaluated and to the inclusion of terms...
متن کاملPerturbation spectrum in inflation with cutoff
As a potentially accessible window to aspects of Planck scale physics it has been pointed out that the perturbation spectrum predicted by inflation may be sensitive to a natural ultraviolet cutoff. A fairly general classification of the possible short-distance cutoffs that one may encounter at the Planck scale has also recently been given. Indeed, various studies of quantum gravity and string t...
متن کاملCurvature perturbation spectrum from false vacuum inflation
In the inflationary cosmology it occurs frequently that the inflaton field is trapped in a local, transient minimum with non-zero vacuum energy. The difficulty regarding the curvature perturbation produced during such a stage is that classically the inflaton does not move so that the comoving hypersurfaces are not well defined at linear order in the scalar field perturbation. In this paper, ass...
