The CMB asymmetry from inflation
David H. Lyth
Erickcek, Kamionkowski and Carroll proposed in 2008 that the dipole modulation of the CMB could be due to a very large scale perturbation of the field causing the primordial cu…

The statistically anisotropic curvature perturbation generated by f(ϕ)^2 F^2
David H. Lyth, Mindaugas Karčiauskas
The inflaton might be coupled to a gauge field through a term f^2(ϕ) F_μνF^μν. If f \propto a^{-2} where a(t) is the scale factor, the perturbation δW of the gauge field generates…
