Lectures on cosmic inflation and its potential stringy realizations
From MaRDI portal
String and superstring theories; other extended objects (e.g., branes) in quantum field theory (81T30) Research exposition (monographs, survey articles) pertaining to relativity and gravitational theory (83-02) String and superstring theories in gravitational theory (83E30) Relativistic cosmology (83F05)
Abstract: These notes present a brief introduction to Hot Big Bang cosmology and Cosmic Inflation, together with a selection of some recent attempts to embed inflation into string theory. They provide a partial description of lectures presented in courses at Dubrovnik in August 2006, at CERN in January 2007 and at Cargese in August 2007. They are aimed at graduate students with a working knowledge of quantum field theory, but who are unfamiliar with the details of cosmology or of string theory.
