Quantum fluctuations at the Planck scale

Abstract The recently measured cutoff, $$k_\mathrm{min}=4.34\pm 0.50/r_{\mathrm{cmb}}$$ kmin=4.34±0.50/rcmb (with $$r_{\mathrm{cmb}}$$ rcmb the comoving distance to the last scattering surface), in the fluctuation spectrum of the cosmic microwave background, appears to disfavor slow-roll inflation a...
