Title Self-introduction, or a biased view of what theoretical cosmologists are recently interested in
Abstract Recent progress in cosmological observations represented by Planck, LIGO, etc. has been changing the research “trend” of the early universe. While Starobinsky’s minimal (but somewhat “weird”) inflationary scenario is favored, the primordial black hole (PBH) as a consequence of exotic inflation has been also motivated more and more. Through a brief review of these situations, I will self-introduce my research topics such as stochastic calculus approach to inflationary perturbations, multistage inflation for PBH production, metric-affine gravity as a new interpretation of Starobinsky’s model, and so on.
