There are several regimes in chaotic inflationary cosmology where some part of the system is classical and some other quantum. I describe how to deal with such systems and how to disentangle their dynamics into classical behaviour and…

Particle creation by strong and time-varying backgrounds is a robust prediction of quantum field theory. Another well-established feature of field theory is that classical symmetries do not always extend to the quantized theory. When this…
