abstract
We show that the correlation functions of any single-field cosmological model with constant growing-modes are constrained by an infinite number of novel consistency relations, which relate (N+1)-point correlation functions with a soft-momentum scalar or tensor mode to a symmetry transformation on N-point correlation functions of hard-momentum modes. We derive these consistency relations from Ward identities for an infinite tower of non-linearly realized global symmetries governing scalar and tensor perturbations. These symmetries can be labeled by an integer n. At each order n, the consistency relations constrain - completely for n=0,1, and partially for n>= 2 - the q^n behavior of the soft limits. The identities at n=0 recover Maldacena's original consistency relations for a soft scalar and tensor mode, n=1 gives the recently-discovered conformal consistency relations, and the identities for n>= 2 are new. As a check, we verify directly that the n=2 identity is satisfied by known correlation functions in slow-roll inflation.

Estimators from squeezed bispectrum and collapsed trispectrum recover unbiased small-scale matter power spectrum covariance at the percent level using 25 Quijote simulations.
Ward identities from large gauge symmetry impose model-independent constraints on renormalizing inflationary loops and non-perturbatively govern the infrared power spectrum evolution.
Ward identities derived from perturbation-theory symmetries enforce non-perturbative constraints on the infrared power spectrum and guarantee conservation of super-horizon modes in non-attractor inflation.
In dynamical Chern-Simons inflation the parity-odd trispectrum is a double copy of the mixed bispectrum and parity-odd power spectrum via a prior factorization formula.
