Cosmological Cutting Rules

Scott Melville, Enrico Pajer

Primordial perturbations in our universe are believed to have a quantum origin, and can be described by the wavefunction of the universe (or equivalently, cosmological correlators)…

Unitary and Analytic Renormalisation of Cosmological Correlators

Diksha Jain, Enrico Pajer, Xi Tong

Loop contributions to cosmological correlators and to the associated wavefunction are of key theoretical and phenomenological interest. Here, we investigate and compare different r…

On the Asymptotic Nature of Cosmological Effective Theories

Carlos Duaso Pueyo, Harry Goodhew, Ciaran McCulloch +1

Much of our intuition about Effective Field Theories (EFTs) stems from their formulation in flat spacetime, yet EFTs have become indispensable tools in cosmology, where time-depend…

Perturbative unitarity bounds from momentum-space entanglement

Carlos Duaso Pueyo, Harry Goodhew, Ciaran McCulloch +1

Physical theories have a limited regime of validity and hence must be accompanied by a breakdown diagnostic to establish when they cease to be valid as parameters are varied. For p…

An Open Effective Field Theory for light in a medium

Santiago Agui Salcedo, Thomas Colas, Enrico Pajer

In many scenarios of interest, a quantum system interacts with an unknown environment, necessitating the use of open quantum system methods to capture dissipative effects and envir…

The Open Effective Field Theory of Inflation

Santiago Agui Salcedo, Thomas Colas, Enrico Pajer

In our quest to understand the generation of cosmological perturbations, we face two serious obstacles: we do not have direct information about the environment experienced by primo…
