We use the delta N-formalism to describe the leading order contributions to the primordial power spectrum, bispectrum and trispectrum in multiple-field models of inflation at leading order in a perturbative expansion. In slow-roll models where the initial field fluctuations at Hubble-exit are nearly Gaussian, any detectable non-Gaussianity is expected to come from super-Hubble evolution. We show that the contribution to the primordial trispectrum can be described by two non-linearity parameters, tau_{NL} and g_{NL}, which are dependent upon the second and third derivatives of the local expansion with respect to the field values during inflation.

  1. Trispectrum in Extended USR Model with Transition to SR

    astro-ph.CO 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0

    In the two-phase USR-SR inflation model, g_NL = 25 h^3 / (3 (h-6)^3) and tau_NL = 9 h^4 / (h-6)^4, confirmed by both delta-N and in-in formalisms.

  2. Isotropy, anisotropies and non-Gaussianity in the scalar-induced gravitational-wave background: diagrammatic approach for primordial non-Gaussianity up to arbitrary order

    astro-ph.CO 2025-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Extends diagrammatic approach for scalar-induced gravitational waves to arbitrary-order local PNG, deriving semi-analytic spectra for energy density, anisotropies, bispectrum and trispectrum up to quartic terms.
