About these lecture notes:I lectured a course on cosmological perturbation theory at the University of Helsinki in thespring of 2003, and then again in the fall of 2010. These are the lecture notes for the lattercourse.There is an unfortunate variety in the notation employed by various authors. My notationis the result of first learning perturbation theory from Mukhanov, Feldman, and Brandenberger(Phys. Rep. 215, 213 (1992)) and then from Liddle and Lyth (<strong>Cosmological</strong> Inflation andLarge-Scale Structure, Cambridge University Press 2000, Chapters 14 and 15), and represents acompromise between their notations.
