Descripción
Inflation is by far the leading theory explaining the initial conditions of our universe. Its predictions are consistent with all existing experimental probes, yet it lacks firm observational evidence. I will give an overview of the theoretical status of inflationary scenarios, in a model-independent way. I will explain how inflationary predictions are related to fundamental physics and what are the ensuing theoretical problems.
