abstract
Primordial features are one of the most important extensions of the Standard Model of cosmology, providing a wealth of information on the primordial universe, ranging from discrimination between inflation and alternative scenarios, new particle detection, to fine structures in the inflationary potential. We study the prospects of future large-scale structure (LSS) surveys on the detection and constraints of these features. We classify primordial feature models into several classes, and for each class we present a simple template of power spectrum that encodes the essential physics. We study how well the most ambitious LSS surveys proposed to date, including both spectroscopic and photometric surveys, will be able to improve the constraints with respect to the current Planck data. We find that these LSS surveys will significantly improve the experimental sensitivity on features signals that are oscillatory in scales, due to the 3D information. For a broad range of models, these surveys will be able to reduce the errors of the amplitudes of the features by a factor of 5 or more, including several interesting candidates identified in the recent Planck data. Therefore, LSS surveys offer an impressive opportunity for primordial feature discovery in the next decade or two. We also compare the advantages of both types of surveys.

Derives integro-differential boundary equations from bulk locality for scale-breaking cosmological correlators with oscillating heavy-field masses and solves them analytically and numerically to reveal enhanced collider signals.
Calibrates a one-parameter semi-analytic damping model for oscillatory primordial power spectrum features using N-body simulations and validates sub-percent accuracy via GPR emulation when modulation frequency is high enough.
Genetic algorithm reconstructs single-field inflationary models with features in the scalar power spectrum that fit Planck 2018 CMB data better by Δχ² ≲ -10 and suggest alternative background parameters.
Systematic re-analysis of Planck PR3 and PR4 CMB datasets finds local fit improvements of up to Δχ² ≈ -15 for certain oscillatory templates but no global significance above 2.6σ after look-elsewhere correction and Bayesian penalties.
Updated SKAO-AA4 forecasts show multi-tracer HI+galaxy analyses can reach σ(f_local_NL)≲1 and improve αs bounds by tens of percent when combined with future CMB, while foregrounds and GR light-cone effects remain the main systematics.
