Scale Invariant Density Perturbations from Cyclic Cosmology
arXiv:1508.01079 · doi:10.1142/S0217732316500760
Abstract
It is shown how quantum fluctuations of the radiation during the contraction era of a CBE (Comes Back Empty) cyclic cosmology can provide density fluctuations which re-enter the horizon during the subsequent expansion era and at lowest order are scale invariant, in a Harrison-Zel'dovich-Peebles sense, as necessary to be consistent with observations of large scale structure.
