Background-independent one-loop renormalization of tensor and scalar primordial spectra
Guillermo Ballesteros, Jesús Gambín Egea, Flavio Riccardi
We present a background-independent renormalization framework for one-loop primordial spectra. We apply it to two observables: the scalar-induced tensor spectrum sourced by a minim…
Classical and quantum evolution of inflationary fluctuations
Guillermo Ballesteros, Jesús Gambín Egea, Alejandro Pérez Rodríguez
We compare the correlation functions of inflationary perturbations computed either with quantum or classical dynamics. Even if they are enforced to agree at a specific time during…
Finite parts of inflationary loops II: A streamlined UV in-in algorithm and distinguishable signatures
Guillermo Ballesteros, Jesús Gambín Egea, Flavio Riccardi
We introduce a streamlined method for evaluating in-in loop integrals using dimensional regularization for diagrams with an arbitrary number of external legs and vertices, which co…
Intrinsic non-Gaussianity of ultra slow-roll inflation
Guillermo Ballesteros, Jesús Gambín Egea, Thomas Konstandin +3
We study the non-Gaussian tail of the curvature fluctuation, , in an inflationary scenario with a transient ultra slow-roll phase that generates a localized large enhancement of…
Finite parts of inflationary loops
Guillermo Ballesteros, Jesús Gambín Egea, Flavio Riccardi
We present a method for solving loop integrals in dimensional regularization that is particularly useful in the context of inflation. We apply this method to the calculation of the…
Primordial black hole formation from self-resonant preheating?
Guillermo Ballesteros, Joaquim Iguaz Juan, Paquale D. Serpico +1
We revisit the question of how generic is the formation of primordial black holes via self-resonant growth of inflaton fluctuations in the post-inflationary, preheating phase. Usin…
Non-Gaussian tails without stochastic inflation
Guillermo Ballesteros, Thomas Konstandin, Alejandro Pérez Rodríguez +2
We show, both analytically and numerically, that non-Gaussian tails in the probability density function of curvature perturbations arise in ultra-slow-roll inflation from the …
One-loop power spectrum in ultra slow-roll inflation and implications for primordial black hole dark matter
Guillermo Ballesteros, Jesús Gambín Egea
We apply the in-in formalism to address the question of whether the size of the one-loop spectrum of curvature fluctuations in ultra-slow-roll inflation models designed for produci…
