Naturalness in Higgs inflation in a frame independent formalism

Tomislav Prokopec, Jan Weenink

We make use of the frame and gauge independent formalism for scalar and tensor cosmological perturbations developed in Ref. [1] to show that the physical cutoff for 2-to-2 tree lev…

Frame independent cosmological perturbations

Tomislav Prokopec, Jan Weenink

We compute the third order gauge invariant action for scalar-graviton interactions in the Jordan frame. We demonstrate that the gauge invariant action for scalar and tensor perturb…

An exact solution of the Dirac equation with CP violation

Tomislav Prokopec, Michael G. Schmidt, Jan Weenink

We consider Yukawa theory in which the fermion mass is induced by a Higgs like scalar. In our model the fermion mass exhibits a temporal dependence, which naturally occurs in the e…

Uniqueness of the gauge invariant action for cosmological perturbations

Tomislav Prokopec, Jan Weenink

In second order perturbation theory different definitions are known of gauge invariant perturbations in single field inflationary models. Consequently the corresponding gauge invar…

The Gaussian entropy of fermionic systems

Tomislav Prokopec, Michael G. Schmidt, Jan Weenink

We consider the entropy and decoherence in fermionic quantum systems. By making a Gaussian Ansatz for the density operator of a collection of fermions we study statistical 2-point…

On decoherence of cosmological perturbations and stochastic inflation

Jan Weenink, Tomislav Prokopec

By making a suitable generalization of the Starobinsky stochastic inflation, we propose a classical phase space formulation of stochastic inflation which may be used for a quantita…
