| Samenvatting | We investigate the non-Gaussianity of primordial cosmological perturbations using holographic methods.
In particular, we derive holographic formulae that relate all cosmological 3-point correlation functions,
including both scalar and tensor perturbations, to stress-energy correlation functions of a
holographically dual three-dimensional quantum field theory. These results apply to general single scalar
inflationary universes that at late times approach either de Sitter spacetime or accelerating power-law
cosmologies. We further show that in Einstein gravity all 3-point functions involving tensors can be
obtained from correlators containing only positive helicity gravitons, with the ratios of these to the
correlators involving one negative helicity graviton being given by universal functions of momenta,
irrespectively of the potential of the scalar field. As a by-product of this investigation, we obtain
holographic formulae for the full 3-point function of the stress-energy tensor along general holographic
RG flows. These results should have applications in a wider holographic context. |
