Title: Primordial fluctuations from nonlinear couplings
(Submitted on 23 Aug 1996 (v1), last revised 28 Nov 1996 (this version, v2))
Abstract: We study the spectrum of primordial fluctuations in theories where the inflaton field is coupled to massless fields and/or to itself. Conformally invariant theories generically predict a scale invariant spectrum. Scales entering the theory through infrared divergences cause logarithmic corrections to the spectrum, tiltilng it towards the blue. We discuss in some detail whether these fluctuations are quantum or classical in nature.
