One-loop correction to the enhanced curvature perturbation with local-type non-Gaussianity for the formation of primordial black holes

Abstract

As one of the promising candidates of cold dark matter (DM), primordial black holes (PBHs) were formed due to the collapse of over-densed regions generated by the enhanced curvature perturbations during the radiation-dominated era. The enhanced curvature perturbations are expected to be non-Gaussian in some relevant inflation models and hence the higher-order loop corrections to the curvature power spectrum might be non-negligible as well as altering the abundance of PBHs. In this paper, we calculate the one-loop correction to the curvature power spectrum with local-type non-Gaussianities characterizing by $F_{\mathrm{NL}}$ and $G_{\mathrm{NL}}$ standing for the quadratic and cubic non-Gaussian parameters, respectively. Requiring that the one-loop correction be subdominant, we find a perturbativity condition, namely $|2cA{F}_{\mathrm{NL}}^2+6A{G}_{\mathrm{NL}}|\ll 1$, where $c$ is a constant coefficient which can be explicitly calculated in the given model and $A$ denotes the variance of Gaussian part of enhanced curvature perturbation, and such a perturbativity condition can provide a stringent constraint on the relevant inflation models for the formation of PBHs.
