Stochastic inflation at all order in slow-roll parameters: Foundations
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we develop the formalism for stochastic approach to inflation at all order in slow-roll parameters. This is done by including momentum and Hamiltonian constraints into equations. We then specialise widely used Starobinski approximation where interactions between IR UV modes are neglected. show that, whenever holds, no significant deviations observed when comparing two-point correlation functions (power spectrum) calculated with methods, ones QFT linear theory. As a byproduct, argue that: a) approaches based on approximation, generically, do not capture any loop effects of quantum scalar-gravity system; b) correlations can only be theory regimes, thus, non-perturbative statistics extracted within as commonly claimed.

Generalized slow-roll inflation
The slow-roll approximation to inflation is ultimately justified by the presence of inflationary attractors for the orbits of the solutions of the dynamical equations in phase space. There are many indications that the inflaton field couples nonminimally to the spacetime curvature: the existence of attractor points for inflation with nonminimal coupling is demonstrated, subject to a condition o...
متن کاملInflation without slow roll
We draw attention to the possibility that inflation (i.e. accelerated expansion) might continue after the end of slow roll, during a period of fast oscillations of the inflaton field φ. This phenomenon takes place when a mild non-convexity inequality is satisfied by the potential V (φ). The presence of such a period of φ-oscillation-driven inflation can substantially modify reheating scenarios....
متن کاملBrane inflation without slow-roll
The scenario of brane inflation without using the conventional slow-roll approximations has been investigated. Based on the mechanism of generating the curvature perturbations at the end of inflation, a new brane inflation paradigm was developed. The conditions for making a sufficiently large enough number of e-foldings and for generating the curvature perturbations without producing dangerous ...
متن کاملSlow roll in simple non-canonical inflation
We consider inflation using a class of non-canonical Lagrangians for which the modification to the kinetic term depends on the field, but not its derivatives. We generalize the standard Hubble slow roll expansion to the non-canonical case and derive expressions for observables in terms of the generalized slow roll parameters. We apply the general results to the illustrative case of “Slinky” inf...
متن کاملFormalizing the slow-roll approximation in inflation.
The meaning of the inflationary slow-roll approximation is formalised. Comparisons are made between an approach based on the Hamilton-Jacobi equations, governing the evolution of the Hubble parameter, and the usual scenario based on the evolution of the potential energy density. The vital role of the inflationary attractor solution is emphasised, and some of its properties described. We propose...
