abstract
In this work, we have performed numerical simulations of primordial black hole (PBH) formation in the Friedman-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker universe filled by radiation fluid, introducing the local-type non-Gaussianity to the primordial curvature fluctuation. We have compared the numerical results from simulations with previous analytical estimations on the threshold value for PBH formation done in the previous paper arXiv:2109.00791, particularly for negative values of the non-linearity parameter $f_{\rm NL}$. Our numerical results show the existence of PBH formation of (the so-called) type I also in the case $f_{\rm NL} \lesssim -0.336$, which was not found in the previous analytical expectations using the critical averaged compaction function. In particular, although the universal value for the averaged critical compaction function $\bar{\mathcal{C}}_{c}=2/5$ found previously in the literature is not satisfied for all the profiles considered in this work, an alternative direct analytical estimate has been found to be roughly accurate to estimate the thresholds, which gives the value of the critical averaged density with a few $\%$ deviation from the numerical one for $f_{\rm NL}\gtrsim -1$.

Curvaton self-interactions in non-quadratic potentials produce a local non-Gaussian map that enables supermassive primordial black hole formation at peak amplitudes of order 10^{-5} while remaining consistent with μ-distortion bounds.
Extends diagrammatic approach for scalar-induced gravitational waves to arbitrary-order local PNG, deriving semi-analytic spectra for energy density, anisotropies, bispectrum and trispectrum up to quartic terms.
