We present the model-independent studies of non attractor inflation in the context of effective field theory (EFT) of inflation. Within the EFT approach two independent branches of non-attractor inflation solutions are discovered in which a near scale-invariant curvature perturbation power spectrum is generated from the interplay between the variation of sound speed and the second slow roll parameter \eta. The first branch captures and extends the previously studied models of non-attractor inflation in which the curvature perturbation is not frozen on super-horizon scales and the single field non-Gaussianity consistency condition is violated. We present the general expression for the amplitude of local-type non-Gaussianity in this branch. The second branch is new in which the curvature perturbation is frozen on super-horizon scales and the single field non-Gaussianity consistency condition does hold in the squeezed limit. Depending on the model parameters, the shape of bispectrum in this branch changes from an equilateral configuration to a folded configuration while the amplitude of non-Gaussianity is less than unity.

  1. Trispectrum in Extended USR Model with Transition to SR

    astro-ph.CO 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the two-phase USR-SR inflation model, g_NL = 25 h^3 / (3 (h-6)^3) and tau_NL = 9 h^4 / (h-6)^4, confirmed by both delta-N and in-in formalisms.

  2. Inflationary background renormalization

    hep-th 2025-04 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In single-field inflation, imposing a zero one-point function for the curvature perturbation leaves a finite, scheme-dependent one-loop correction to the two-point function that background renormalization cannot absorb.

  3. Hamiltonians to all Orders in Perturbation Theory and Higher Loop Corrections in Single Field Inflation with PBHs Formation

    astro-ph.CO 2025-02 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Derives all-order Hamiltonians via EFT of inflation for USR models and shows L-loop corrections to CMB-scale perturbations scale as (ΔN P_e L)^L, exiting perturbative control at L=4 for typical ΔN≈2.5.

  4. Two-loop corrections in power spectrum in models of inflation with PBHs formation

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The two-loop 'double scoop' diagram correction in USR inflation scales as the square of the one-loop correction, confirming that sharp transitions make the loop expansion unreliable.
