abstract
We compute all N-point primordial curvature correlation functions from inflation at tree-level up to N of order ten or more depending on the choice of parameters. This is achieved for resonant inflationary models in which the inflaton potential has a periodic modulation on top of a slow-roll flat term. These models find a natural UV completion in string theory implementation of axion monodromy. Key to the success of our computation is the observation that gravitational interactions among the perturbations can be neglected, which we argue is justified for any model of inflation with parametrically large non-Gaussianity. We provide a comprehensive review and detailed derivations of known consistency relations for squeezed and collinear limits, and generalize them to any N-point function.

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.
In USR inflation with an idealized instantaneous sharp transition to slow-roll, higher loop corrections to curvature perturbations on CMB scales grow rapidly with loop order L and may exit perturbative control.
In a string-inspired two-field axion monodromy model, oscillatory modulations excite heavy moduli during inflation, producing detectable cosmological collider signals in the primordial bispectrum that bypass Boltzmann suppression.
