Classification of inflationary models and constraints on fundamental physics
Mauro Pieroni
This work is focused on the study of early time cosmology and in particular on the study of inflation. After an introduction on the standard Big Bang theory, we discuss the physics…
Universality for quintessence
F. Cicciarella, M. Pieroni
Several recent works suggested the possibility of describing inflation by means of a renormalization group equation. In this paper we discuss the application of these methods to mo…
Universality in generalized models of inflation
Pierre Binétruy, Joel Mabillard, Mauro Pieroni
We discuss the cosmological evolution of a scalar field with non standard kinetic term in terms of a Renormalization Group Equation (RGE). In this framework inflation corresponds t…
Primordial gravitational waves for universality classes of pseudoscalar inflation
Valerie Domcke, Mauro Pieroni, Pierre Binétruy
Current bounds from the polarization of the CMB predict the scale-invariant gravitational wave (GW) background of inflation to be out of reach for upcoming GW interferometers. This…
