What is Inflation?
 Brout, Englert & Gunzig ’77, Starobinsky ’79, Guth ’81, Sato ’81, Linde ’81,…

 Inflation is a quasi-exponential expansion of the Universe at its
 very early stage; perhaps at t~10-36 sec.
 It is the origin of Hot Bing-Bang Universe
 It was meant to solve the initial condition (singularity, horizon &
 flatness, etc.) problems in Big-Bang Cosmology:
 if any of them can be said to be solved depends on precise
 definitions of the problems.
 Quantum vacuum fluctuations during inflation turn out to play
 the most important role. They give the initial condition for all
 the structures in the Universe.

 Cosmic gravitational wave background is also generated.

 apparently, a lot of confusion
 even among “big names”.

 The history of the derivation of the spectrum of adiabatic perturbations in new inflation,
 as presented in the talk by M.S. Turner at the Nuffield workshop in June 1982. To the best
 of my knowledge, the only person who did not change his results during the workshop
 was Alexei Starobinsky.

Summary: Current Status
 Standard (single-field, slow-roll) inflation predicts almost scale-
 invariant Gaussian curvature perturbations.
 Observational data are consistent with theoretical predictions.

• highly Gaussian fluctuations: f NL

 Swampland conjecture?

 ∇ < / ; = (1)
 Ooguri, Palti, Shiu & Vafa ‘18
or
 − ′ 
 min(∇ ∇ ) ≤ 2 ; ′ = (1)
 
 In particular, de Sitter (dS) space is in swampland!
 If dS exists in nature,
 either swampland conjecture is false
 or string theory is false !

 let us assume (hope?) that the conjecture is false!
Universe jumps around string landscape by quantum tunneling
 expansion rate
 • it can go up to a vacuum with larger v
 de Sitter (dS) space ~ thermal state with T =H/2
 SO(4,1)
 • if tunnels to a vacuum with v 0
 • inside a bubble with v >0 is Open dS universe
