Hybrid inflation's waterfall tachyonic instability grows isocurvature modes that convert to curvature perturbations at the field-space turn, yielding a k^{3}-peaked spectrum with always-positive f_NL that enhances PBH formation.
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.
Spectral solution of the Fokker-Planck operator for hilltop constant-roll inflation shows rare crossing trajectories dominate the mean, so the median yields a coarse-grained ΔN distribution whose exponential tail flattens into a peak near maximal value.
A spectator scalar in modulated reheating with large Higgs-like couplings generates detectable scalar-induced stochastic gravitational waves for BBO and DECIGO, but only outside perturbative low-energy extrapolations.

Memoirs of the curvaton: non-perturbative non-Gaussianity and supermassive primordial black holes
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.

Stochastic constant-roll inflation beyond the hilltop with the spectral method
Spectral solution of the Fokker-Planck operator for hilltop constant-roll inflation shows rare crossing trajectories dominate the mean, so the median yields a coarse-grained ΔN distribution whose exponential tail flattens into a peak near maximal value.
