Translational Invariance and the Anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background
Sean M. Carroll, Chien-Yao Tseng, Mark B. Wise
Primordial quantum fluctuations produced by inflation are conventionally assumed to be statistically homogeneous, a consequence of translational invariance. In this paper we quanti…
