ü Solves horizon, flatness problems

ü Explains fluctuations as stretched quantum perturbations seeds for all structure

ü Predicts a nearly scale invariant spectrumtogether with Gaussian perturbations

A simple mechanism: scalar field with a flat potential.

preheating

• inefficient preheating can lead to prolonged matter-dominated phase after inflation, changing the time during inflation when the CMB modes exit the horizon

Energy scale of the very early universe could be as high as 10#$GeV.Could contain scalar fields to participate in inflationary dynamics.

Two types of perturbations:

• Adiabatic (curvature)• Non-Adiabatic (isocurvature)

Derivative interaction/random trajectory turns:couple the fluctuations and modify their dispersion relations and correlators.

• More background oscillations occur per Hubble time for smaller values of alpha

• For small alphas the Hubble scale can be neglected, as it takes a large number of background oscillations for any considerable red-shifting to occur.

The amplification per Hubble time grows as

• The amplification factor during each tachyonic regime is approximately the same

• There are oscillations per Hubble time

• We can ignore the slow red-shifting of the background
