Power Spectra in Spacetime Noncommutative Inflation
نویسنده
چکیده
String/M theory inspires an uncertainty relation between space and time which deviates from general relativity. It is possible to explore this deviation from cosmological observations, in particular from the CMB fluctuation spectrum. This paper extends some previous observations to more general inflation schemes, we find that the noncommutative spacetime effects always suppress the power spectrum, of both the scalar and tensor perturbations, and may provide a large enough running of the spectral index to fit the WMAP data in the inflation model.

A Note on Curvature Fluctuation of Noncommutative Inflation
An elegant approach, which incorporates the effect of the stringy spacetime uncertainty relation, to calculate power spectra of fluctuations during inflation has been suggested by Brandenberger and Ho. In this approach, one of important features is the appearance of an upper bound on the comoving momentum k, at which the stringy spacetime uncertainty relation is saturated. As a result, the time...
متن کاملGeneralized Space-time Noncommutative Inflation
We study the noncommutative inflation with a time-dependent noncommutativity between space and time. From the numerical analysis of power law inflation, there are clues that the CMB spectrum indicates a nonconstant noncommutative inflation. Then we extend our treatment to the inflation models with more general noncommutativity and find that the scalar perturbation power spectrum depends sensiti...
متن کاملCMB Power Spectrum from Noncommutative Spacetime
Very recent CMB data of WMAP offers an opportunity to test inflation models, in particular, the running of spectral index is quite new and can be used to rule out some models. We show that an noncommutative spacetime inflation model gives a good explanation of these new results. In fitting the data, we also obtain a relationship between the noncommutative parameter (string scale) and the ending...
متن کاملRunning Spectral Index in Noncommutative Inflation and WMAP Three Year Results
A model independent analysis shows that the running of the spectral index of the three year WMAP results can be nicely realized in noncommutative inflation. We also reexamine some concrete noncommutative inflation models. We find that a large tensor-scalar ratio is required, corresponding to a low number of e-folds before the end of inflation in some simple models. An epoch of accelerated expan...
متن کاملIs Noncommutative Eternal Inflation Possible?
We investigate the condition for eternal inflation to take place in the noncommutative spacetime. We find that the possibility for eternal inflation’s happening is greatly suppressed in this case. If eternal inflation can not happen in the low energy region where the noncommutativity is very weak (the UV region), it will never happen along the whole inflationary history. Based on these conclusi...
