“…Indeed, the standard slow-roll expression for the power spectrum of the adiabatic mode of primordial scalar (density) perturbations becomes infinite, i.e., meaningless, ifḢ becomes zero during inflation. Therefore, the study of quantum effects in a nearly de Sitter stage withḢ = 0, in particular, when the total change in H during inflation is not small compared with its value during the last e-folds of inflation [2,3,4,5,6] (see also the recent papers [7,8,9]), is not of just pure theoretical interest.…”
