Abstract:One of the fundamental questions in inflation is how to characterize the structure of
different types of models in the field theoretic landscape. Proposals in this direction include
attempts to directly characterize the formal structure of the theory by considering complexity
measures of the potentials. An alternative intrinsic approach is to focus on the behavior of the
observables that result from different models and to ask whether their behavior differs among
models. This type of analysis can b… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
