Resummations for inflationary quantum gravity

The continual production of gravitons during inflation endows loop corrections with secular logarithms which grow nonperturbatively large during a prolonged period of inflation. The physics behind these effects is reviewed, along with a catalog of the examples which have so far been found. Resummation can be accomplished by combining a variant of Starobinsky’s stochastic formalism with a variant of the renormalization group. The issue of gauge independence is also addressed.

Abstract

The continual production of gravitons during inflation endows loop corrections with secular logarithms which grow nonperturbatively large during a prolonged period of inflation. The physics behind these effects is reviewed, along with a catalog of the examples which have so far been found. Resummation can be accomplished by combining a variant of Starobinsky’s stochastic formalism with a variant of the renormalization group. The issue of gauge independence is also addressed.
