Analytic Correlation of Inflationary Potential to Power Spectrum Shape: Limits of Validity, and `No-Go' for Small Field Model Analytics
Ira Wolfson
The primordial power spectrum informs the possible inflationary histories of our universe. Given a power spectrum, the ensuing cosmic microwave background is calculated and compare…

The isotropic attractor solution of axion-SU(2) inflation: Universal isotropization in Bianchi type-I geometry
Ira Wolfson, Azadeh Maleknejad, Tomoaki Murata +2
SU(2) gauge fields coupled to an axion field can acquire an isotropic background solution during inflation. We study homogeneous but anisotropic inflationary solutions in the prese…

Numerical Analysis of the Primordial Power Spectrum for (Small Field) Inflationary Potentials
Ira Wolfson
We study small field models of inflation, which, against previous expectations, yield significant Gravitational Wave (GW) signal while reproducing other measured observable quantit…
