The Suyama-Yamaguchi consistency relation in the presence of vector fields

We consider inflationary models in which vector fields are responsible for part or eventually all of the primordial curvature perturbation \zeta. Such models are phenomenologically interesting since they naturally introduce anisotropies in the probability distribution function of the primordial fluctuations that can leave a measurable imprint in the cosmic microwave background. Assuming that non-Gaussianity is generated due to the superhorizon evolution, we use the \delta N formalism to do a complete tree level calculation of the non-Gaussianity parameters f_{NL} and \tau_{NL} in the presence of vector fields. We isolate the isotropic pieces of the non-Gaussianity parameters, which anyway have contributions from the vector fields, and show that they obey the Suyama-Yamaguchi consistency relation \tau^{iso}_{NL}>=(6/5f^{iso}_{NL})^2. Other ways of defining the non-Gaussianity parameters, which could be observationally relevant, are stated and the respective Suyama-Yamaguchi-like consistency relations are obtained.
