Initial conditions problem in cosmological inflation revisited

Abstract

We present first results from a novel numerical relativity code based on a tetrad formulation of the Einstein-scalar field equations combined with recently introduced gauge/frame invariant diagnostics indicating that inflation does not solve the homogeneity and isotropy problem beginning from generic initial conditions following a big bang.
