We show how the quantum to classical transition of the cosmological fluctuations produced during inflation can be described by means of the influence functional and the master equation. We split the inflaton field into the system-field (long-wavelength modes), and the environment, represented by its own short-wavelength modes. We compute the decoherence times for the system-field modes and compare them with the other time scales of the model.

Stochastic inflation as an open quantum system II: open effective field theory and stochastic matching
Develops open EFT for stochastic inflation with a distinct stochastic RG channel, derives nonlocal master equations including Fokker-Planck and Klein-Kramers forms, and demonstrates stochastic renormalization with an ...

Stochastic inflation from a non-equilibrium renormalization group
Stochastic inflation is the leading infrared limit of a coarse-grained Schwinger–Keldysh effective theory, and the same Fokker–Planck dynamics follows from a Polchinski-type renormalization-group flow for the reduced ...

Directly computing Wigner functions for open quantum systems
An expression is derived to compute time-dependent Wigner functions directly from initial values in open quantum systems of a non-relativistic particle with a general environment.

Stochastic inflation as a superfluid
Inflationary superhorizon fluctuations obey superfluid-type continuity and Euler equations, with quantum pressure becoming relevant in ultra-slow-roll phases.
