We discuss the possibility of devising cosmological observables which violate Bell's inequalities. Such observables could be used to argue that cosmic scale features were produced by quantum mechanical effects in the very early universe. As a proof of principle, we propose a somewhat elaborate inflationary model where a Bell inequality violating observable can be constructed.

  1. Classical and quantum evolution of inflationary fluctuations

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Classical and quantum correlation functions of inflationary perturbations diverge exponentially with e-folds when interactions are relevant, even if forced to agree at an intermediate time.

  2. Towards Stochastic Inflation in Higher-Curvature Gravity

    gr-qc 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Stochastic inflation with Gauss-Bonnet coupling to the inflaton yields first-passage-time estimates of the scalar power spectrum and PBH mass fraction in slow-roll and ultra-slow-roll limits.
