Primordial black holes from an inflationary potential valley

Bao-Min Gu et al.

Summary: By studying a toy inflation model with a local minimum, it is found that the curvature perturbations are enhanced when the inflaton passes through the local minimum, leading to the production of primordial black holes (PBHs) on small scales. The PBHs could potentially make up the total dark matter in the mass window of 10^16-10^20 g.

Statistics of coarse-grained cosmological fields in stochastic inflation

Yuichiro Tada et al.

Summary: This study presents a generic framework to compute the one-point statistics of cosmological perturbations at an arbitrary scale, considering the presence of quantum diffusion. The study derives explicit formulae for the probability density function of the curvature perturbation, the comoving density contrast, and the compaction function. The framework is applied to calculate the mass distribution of primordial black holes and confirms the heavy-tailed distribution and the impact of stochastic contamination effects.

Hamiltonian formalism for cosmological perturbations: the separate-universe approach

Danilo Artigas et al.

Summary: The separate-universe approach provides an effective description of cosmological perturbations, simplifying the analysis of large-scale fluctuations by considering the universe as a collection of independent homogeneous and isotropic regions. This study formulates the separate-universe approach in the Hamiltonian formalism, analyzing the full phase-space structure of perturbations. The research shows that, as long as the wavelengths are larger than a certain lower bound, the separate-universe approach reproduces the same phase-space dynamics as the full cosmological perturbation theory.

The hand-made tail: non-perturbative tails from multifield inflation

Ana Achucarro et al.

Summary: This study uses the stochastic inflation formalism to investigate the non-perturbative effects of multi-field fluctuations on the statistical properties of the primordial curvature field, revealing that enhanced non-Gaussian tails are a common feature of slow-roll inflation with additional degrees of freedom.

Highly non-Gaussian tails and primordial black holes from single-field inflation

Yi-Fu Cai et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the relationship between deviations from Gaussian statistics in primordial perturbations and non-perturbative effects. It presents specific examples where the tail of the distribution becomes highly non-Gaussian despite remaining almost Gaussian in the perturbative regime. The study reveals the rich phenomenology of non-Gaussian tails, which has been overlooked in conventional analyses.

Rare events are nonperturbative: Primordial black holes from heavy-tailed distributions

Sina Hooshangi et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the limitations of perturbative treatment in predicting the abundance of primordial black holes (PBHs) and proposes a nonperturbative estimation method, called the SN formalism, for the tail of the probability distribution function (PDF). The results show that the SN formalism can provide more accurate predictions on the tail behavior, leading to a significant enhancement of PBH formation probability compared to perturbation theory.

Primordial black holes in peak theory with a non-Gaussian tail

Naoya Kitajima et al.

Summary: This paper updates the peak theory for estimating the abundance of primordial black holes (PBHs) by implementing critical behavior in PBH mass estimation and using the averaged compaction function for the PBH formation criterion. The study applies the peak theory to a specific non-Gaussian feature, known as the exponential tail, which is characteristic of ultra slow-roll inflation models. The results show a significant enhancement in the PBH abundance and reveal a characteristic maximal mass in the PBH mass spectrum not seen in the simple Press-Schechter approach.

Primordial black holes from metric preheating: mass fraction in the excursion-set approach

Pierre Auclair et al.

Summary: The study investigates the mass distribution of Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) produced during metric preheating, confirming the potential dominance of PBHs at the end of the oscillatory phase. The inclusion of the cloud-in-cloud mechanism reveals a more suppressed mass distribution at low masses and a peak several orders of magnitude above previously thought, with cosmological effects discussed.

Constraints on primordial black holes

Bernard Carr et al.

Summary: In this article, constraints on the fraction of the Universe that may have gone into primordial black holes (PBHs) over a range of masses are updated. The discussion covers the reasons why PBHs smaller than a certain mass threshold are constrained and the various constraints on PBHs larger than that threshold.

Gravitational waves from a universe filled with primordial black holes

Theodoros Papanikolaou et al.

Summary: Ultra-light primordial black holes, with masses less than 10(9)g, can dominate the universe for a transient period and induce cosmological fluctuations and gravitational waves. To avoid backreaction problems with induced gravitational waves, there are constraints on the relative abundance of black holes at formation.

Power spectrum in stochastic inflation

Kenta Ando et al.

Summary: This study calculates the power spectrum of curvature perturbations in stochastic inflation and investigates how quantum diffusion at small scales affects large-scale perturbations observed in the cosmic microwave background. The research shows that even if there is separation between small and large scales, quantum diffusion near the end of inflation can distort the classical relationship between field values and wavenumbers, leading to significant effects. This demonstrates that measurements of the cosmic microwave background can provide explicit constraints on the entire inflationary potential down to the end of inflation.

Ultra-slow-roll inflation with quantum diffusion

Chris Pattison et al.

Summary: The study explores the impact of quantum diffusion on the dynamics of the inflaton during ultra-slow-roll inflation, presenting analytical and numerical techniques. By deriving the characteristic function, the full probability distribution function for the primordial density field is constructed. The numerical results from simulations and a new approach based on iterative Volterra integrals support the possibility of primordial black hole production during ultra-slow-roll inflation.

Non-Gaussian Tail of the Curvature Perturbation in Stochastic Ultraslow-Roll Inflation: Implications for Primordial Black Hole Production

Daniel G. Figueroa et al.

Summary: In this study, quantum diffusion in ultraslow-roll inflation was considered by using the Delta N formalism to calculate the probability distribution of curvature perturbations during this phase. It was found that stochastic effects during ultraslow-roll inflation significantly increase the abundance of primordial black holes compared to Gaussian approximations.
