Double-peaked inflation model: Scalar induced gravitational waves and primordial-black-hole suppression from primordial non-Gaussianity

Abstract

A significant abundance of primordial black hole (PBH) dark matter can be produced by curvature perturbations with power spectrum ${\Delta }_{\zeta }^2(k_{\mathrm{peak}})\sim \mathcal{O}(10^{-2})$ at small scales, associated with the generation of observable scalar induced gravitational waves (SIGWs). However, the primordial non-Gaussianity may play a non-negligible role, which is not usually considered. We propose two inflation models that predict double peaks of order $\mathcal{O}(10^{-2})$ in the power spectrum and study the effects of primordial non-Gaussianity on PBHs and SIGWs. This model is driven by a power-law potential, and has a noncanonical kinetic term whose coupling function admits two peaks. By field-redefinition, it can be recast into a canonical inflation model with two quasi-inflection points in the potential. We find that the PBH abundance will be altered saliently if non-Gaussianity parameter satisfies $|f_{\mathrm{NL}}(k_{\text{peak}},k_{\text{peak}},k_{\text{peak}})|\gtrsim {\Delta }_{\zeta }^2(k_{\mathrm{peak}})/(23{\delta }_c^3)\sim \mathcal{O}(10^{-2})$. Whether the PBH abundance is suppressed or enhanced depends on the $f_{\mathrm{NL}}$ being positive or negative, respectively. In our model, non-Gaussianity parameter $f_{\mathrm{NL}}(k_{\mathrm{peak}},k_{\mathrm{peak}},k_{\mathrm{peak}})\sim \mathcal{O}(1)$ takes positive sign, thus PBH abundance is suppressed dramatically. On the contrary, SIGWs are insensitive to primordial non-Gaussianity and hardly affected, so they are still within the sensitivities of space-based GWs observatories and Square Kilometer Array.
