Inflationary 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 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 کاملScalar perturbations in a primordial inflationary scenario
We compute the spectral index for scalar perturbations generated in a primordial inflationary model. In this model, the transition of the inflationary phase to the radiative era is achieved through the decay of the cosmological term leading a second order phase transition and the characteristics of the model allow to implement a set of initial conditions where the perturbations display a therma...
متن کاملPerturbations in inflationary cosmologies with smooth exit
We give a comprehensive analysis of how scalar and tensor perturbations evolve in cosmologies with a smooth transition from power-law-like and de Sitter-like inflation to a radiation era. Analytic forms for the super-horizon and sub-horizon perturbations in the inflationary and radiation dominated eras are found.
