Effects of space-time noncommutativity on the angular power spectrum of the CMB
arXiv:hep-th/0307029 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysb.2004.01.020
Abstract
We investigate an inflationary model of the universe based on the assumption that space-time is noncommutative in the very early universe. We analyze the effects of space-time noncommutativity on the quantum fluctuations of an inflaton field and investigate their contributions to the cosmic microwave background (CMB). We show that the angular power spectrum l(l+1)C_l generically has a sharp damping for lower l if we assume that the last scattering surface is traced back to fuzzy spheres at the times when large-scale modes cross the Hubble horizon.
