ζkL rescales coordinates<br />

• Q. How would the<br />

conformal rescaling <strong>of</strong><br />

coordinates change the<br />

amplitude <strong>of</strong> the small-scale<br />

perturbation?<br />

• A. No change, if ζk is scaleinvariant.<br />

In this case, no<br />

correlation between ζkL and<br />

(ζkS) 2 would arise.<br />

ζkL<br />

left the horizon already<br />

Separated by more than H -1<br />

(ζkS1) 2 (ζkS2) 2<br />

x1=x0e ζ1 x2=x0e ζ2<br />
