Tensor Perturbations in Inflationary Models as a Probe of Cosmology
read the original abstract
In principle, the tensor metric (gravity-wave) perturbations that arise in inflationary models can, beyond probing the underlying inflationary model, provide information about the Universe: ionization history, presence of a cosmological constant, and epoch of matter-radiation equality. Because tensor perturbations give rise to anisotropy of the cosmic background radiation (CBR) solely through the Sachs-Wolfe effect we are able to calculate analytically the variance of the multipole moments of this part of the CBR temperature anisotropy. In so doing, we carefully take account of the contribution of tensor perturbations that entered the Hubble radius during both the matter-dominated and radiation-dominated epoch by means of a transfer function. The striking feature in the spectrum of multipole amplitudes is a dramatic fall off for $l\ga \sqrt{1+\zl}$, where $\zl$ is the red shift of the last-scattering surface. ...

Graviton Production from Inflaton Condensate: Boltzmann vs Bogoliubov
For quadratic inflaton potentials Boltzmann and Bogoliubov spectra agree at short wavelengths, but for steeper potentials non-adiabatic transition effects captured only by Bogoliubov are sizable across a broad momentum range.

Graviton Production from Inflaton Condensate: Boltzmann vs Bogoliubov
For n=2 inflaton potentials Boltzmann and Bogoliubov agree on short-wavelength gravitons; for n>2 the non-adiabatic transition dominates and requires the Bogoliubov formalism.

High Frequency Spectrum of Primordial Gravitational Waves
High-frequency primordial gravitational waves extend to higher frequencies due to post-inflation inflaton dynamics, and their detailed spectrum shape can distinguish inflation models.

Inflationary interpretation of the gravitational-wave signal in the European Pulsar Timing Array DR2 with constraints
Constrains inflationary tensor parameters to fit the EPTA DR2 signal under CMB, BBN and LVK bounds, favoring radiation-era horizon re-entry but requiring low reheating temperatures.
