Issues on Large Scale Perturbations from Inflation

NCTS, National Tsing Hua University
October 23 - 25, 2017


About this workshop:

Aim of this min-workshop is to discuss several issues on cosmological perturbations from inflation, particularly on the origin of those that are already seen in the CMB data as anomalies.

Topics:

- spatial curvature of the Universe

- global anistropy of the Universe

- non-Gaussianities, etc.

Program (provisional):

Since one of the important purposes of this mini-workshop is to exchange ideas of the participants from various backgrounds and discuss future prospects for our understanding of the physics of the very early Universe, each session will be organized in an informal way, without any fixed rules. The chair of each session (indicated below in the parentheses) will be in complete control of it. The time is also approximate.
