My non-Gaussianity

  • Prof. Moss (Ph.D.)
  • Prof. Sasaki (Post Doc)
  • Prof. Kubota (HETOU)
  • Kubota-Moss-Sasaki scale invariant

spectrum ⇒ I should know everything they know

  • Non-Gaussianity ⇒ I don’t know and

need students like Misumi and Okuda

Introduction

  • k-inflation can be motivated from effective field

theory + curvature coupling terms, ξφ2R

  • Jordan or Einstein frame?
  • Single field models give full agreement

between two frames including non-Gaussianity

  • Qiu and Yang, Non-Gaussianities of single field inflation

with non-minimal coupling, Phys. Rev. D 83 (2011) 084022.

  • non-minimal coupled DBI (ξ=0, 1/6) [see Easson et

al., Phys. Rev. D 80 (2009); ibid. 81(2010)]

Model

  • For example in a two field Lagrangian:
  • Then below some H<<M we can integrate out ρ to get

where M → M - ξR/2

  • Other examples might be DBI with more general ξRφ2

term

Motivation

  • Obtain constraints on inflation models via
  • bservational data
  • k-inflation with non-minimal coupling
  • Most general single field theory with up to

1st order derivatives in φ (cf. Horndeski/G-

inflation at 2nd order)

  • Can we get constraints on conformal

coupling ξ?

  • Due to variable sound speed, k-inflation can generate

large non-Gaussianity (e.g., equilateral limit):

Standard k-inflation

  • Consider FLRW universe described by line element
  • Friedmann equation and the continuity equation are
  • K(φ) changing from <0 to >0 essentially leads to

inflationary attractor solutions

Attractors in k-inflation

In k-inflation, the universe can expand exponentially using

  • nly master equation

˙ E = −3 √ E(E + P)

E.g., setting K(φ)=-1

  • Actually even for K(φ)<0 effect of ξ>0 coupling leads

to a sign change in K(φ)

Final Comments

  • In k-inflation with non-minimal coupling, is there a

characteristic signal, different from other models?

  • Classical stability (backreaction) needs further

investigation, even for DBI non-minimal models (next slide)

  • Non-canonical models lead to non-Gaussianity & non-

minimal coupling broadens allowed parameter space (to be confirmed)

  • Shape of non-Gaussianity is important and has

contribution coming from ξ (later slide, time permitting)

  • Preheating in non-minimal K-inflation interesting?

Classical stability?

  • In Jordan frame easy to see , where

φc2 = (κ2ξ)-1=Mpl2/(8πξ)

  • However another instability can be found from EOM:

Taking trace of Tµν and subbing back into EOM ⇒ where (Px=1, standard result)

  • ℋ constraints ⇒ only for anistropic spacetimes; cf.

Futamase et al., Phys.Rev. D 39 (1989) 405-411

Appendix: Invariance of curvature perturbation R

  • In the Einstein frame fluctuations around FLRW imply

which via a conformal transformation leads to

  • Comparison between the metrics in each frame implies:
  • Thus, scalar curvature (R) and tensor perturbations are

conformally invariant
