Primordial perturbations from ultra-slow-roll single-field inflation with quantum loop effects

Shu-Lin Cheng, Da-Shin Lee, Kin-Wang Ng

It is known that the single-field inflation with a transient ultra-slow-roll phase can produce a large curvature perturbation at small scales for the formation of primordial black…

Power spectrum of primordial perturbations during ultra-slow-roll inflation with back reaction effects

Shu-Lin Cheng, Da-Shin Lee, Kin-Wang Ng

We develop a nonperturbative method through the Hartree factorization to examine the quantum fluctuation effects on the single-field inflationary models in a spatially flat FRW cos…

Superhorizon curvature perturbation in ultra-slow-roll inflation

Shu-Lin Cheng, Wolung Lee, Kin-Wang Ng

We study the growth of superhorizon modes in the curvature perturbation during an ultra-slow-roll or a large- phase in single-field inflation. In a simple toy model, we derive t…

Primordial black holes and associated gravitational waves in axion monodromy inflation

Shu-Lin Cheng, Wolung Lee, Kin-Wang Ng

In the axion monodromy inflation, the inflation is driven by the axion with super-Planckian field values in a monomial potential with superimposed sinusoidal modulations. The coupl…

Production of high stellar-mass primordial black holes in trapped inflation

Shu-Lin Cheng, Wolung Lee, Kin-Wang Ng

Trapped inflation has been proposed to provide a successful inflation with a steep potential. We discuss the formation of primordial black holes in the trapped inflationary scenari…

A numerical study of pseudoscalar inflation with an axion-gauge field coupling

Shu-Lin Cheng, Wolung Lee, Kin-Wang Ng

A numerical study of a pseudoscalar inflation having an axion-photon-like coupling is performed by solving numerically the coupled differential equations of motion for inflaton and…

Inflationary dilaton-axion magnetogenesis

Shu-Lin Cheng, Wolung Lee, Kin-Wang Ng

We discuss the generation of primordial magnetic fields during inflation in the dilaton-axion electromagnetism, in which the dilaton and axion dynamics are introduced in terms of t…
