Scale invariant scalar metric fluctuations during inflation: non-perturbative formalism from a 5D vacuum

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

We extend to 5D an approach of a 4D non-perturbative formalism to study scalar metric fluctuations of a 5D Riemann-flat de Sitter background metric. In contrast with the results obtained in 4D, the spectrum of cosmological scalar metric fluctuations during inflation can be scale invariant and the background inflaton field can take sub-Planckian values.
