We consider the non-equilibrium evolution of the inflaton field coupled to both lighter scalars and fermions. The dissipational dynamics of this field is studied and found to be quite different than that believed in inflationary models. In…

Some form of approximately exponential inflation is generally assumed to be the origin of our present universe. The inflation is thought to be driven by a scalar field potential where the field first slowly slides along the potential and…

We employ the semiclassical approximation to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in the spatially flat de Sitter Universe to investigate the dynamics of a minimally coupled scalar field near the Planck scale. We find that, contrary to naive…

Transitions between nonequilibrium steady states obey a generalized Clausius inequality, which becomes an equality in the quasistatic limit. For slow but finite transitions, we show that the behavior of the system is described by a response…

We present a detailed and systematic analysis of the coarse-grained, nonequilibrium dynamics of a scalar inflaton field coupled to a fermion field in the latter stages of the reheating period of inflationary cosmology. We derive coupled…

The fluctuations of scalar fields, that are invariant under rotations of the worldvolume, in Euclidian signature, can be described by a system of Langevin equations. These equations can be understood as defining a change of variables in the…

We study the mean-field theory, and the properties of fluctuations, in an out of equilibrium Bose-Fermi system, across the transition to a quantum condensed phase. The system is driven out of equilibrium by coupling to multiple baths, which…
