In the context of gauge theories, observable quantities, if properly defined and computed, do not depend on the gauge-fixing procedure. In this paper, we develop a formalism that implements this (apparent) tautology in the case of inflation. As a simple application, we discuss Coleman-Weinberg "hilltop" inflation.

  1. Gauge Choices, Infrared Pitfalls, and Thermal Effects in Effective Potentials

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Including a multiplicative anomaly or using the Heat Kernel method makes the one-loop effective potential in the Fermi gauge independent of the gauge parameter and improves its infrared behaviour, also at finite temperature.
