We derive soft theorems for single-clock cosmologies that enjoy a shift symmetry. These so-called consistency conditions arise from a combination of a large diffeomorphism and the internal shift-symmetry and fix the squeezed limit of all correlators with a soft scalar mode. As an application, we show that our results reproduce the squeezed bispectrum for Ultra-slow-roll inflation, a particular shift-symmetric, non-attractor model which is known to violate Maldacena's consistency relation. Similar results have been previously obtained by Mooij and Palma using background-wave methods. Our results shed new light on the infrared structure of single-clock cosmological spacetimes.

  1. Nonlinear Lattice Framework for Inflation: Bridging stochastic inflation and the $\delta{N}$ formalism

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 8.0 of 10

    A shear-free locally FLRW lattice framework for single-field inflation captures spatially varying expansion, curvature corrections, and nonlinear δN observables at a fraction of the cost of full numerical relativity.

  2. Cosmological Polytopes and the Wavefuncton of the Universe for Light States

    hep-th 2019-09 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A recursive and polytope-based description of the wavefunction of the universe is developed for light massive scalars, with flat-space amplitudes encoded in higher-codimension faces.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. Gravitational memory and Ward identities in the local detector frame

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Gravitational memory in TT gauge is encoded in large residual diffeomorphisms that equal BMS transformations, and their Ward identities yield soft graviton theorems and flat-space consistency relations.

  6. Lectures on Open Systems and Cosmology

    hep-th 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 1.0 of 10

    A pedagogical review that presents the density-matrix/master-equation formalism and the Schwinger–Keldysh path integral in one notation and applies them to inflation; it claims no new result.
