    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This book presents cosmological perturbation stretched by inflation in the early universe which is the leading theory to explain the origin of structures in our universe. Perturbation with wavelength as long as the size of observable universe can explain the origin of cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy. The amplitude of this long-wavelength perturbation is tightly constrained by CMB observation. However, on a smaller scale, there are almost no strict observational constraints on the amplitude of the perturbation. This leads to the possibility that the amplitude of small-scale perturbation is large enough so it can collapse into primordial black holes (PBHs) after it reenters the horizon during radiation-dominated universe. In order to produce an appreciable amount of PBHs, the square amplitude of the curvature perturbation must take an extremely large value, that is, seven digits larger than the value observed by cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) on large scales. Such a large fluctuation can be achieved by violating the slow-roll (SR) condition within a short duration. The best known of such possibilities is ultraslow-roll (USR) inflation, which can be realized if there is an extremely flat region on the inflationary potential. Due to an extremely large amplitude of the perturbation, the evolution of the perturbation is expected to be highly nonlinear. So far, observables in such a theory have been mostly predicted by linear perturbation theory.
