  • Sounds plausible if the bounce works mathematically…

    The key is that inflation is just a theory.

    Fantastic argument based on comparison with progressively marginally younger universes etc. (Not sure how many viewers will understand measure and measure theory though, so this bit might need to be reframed for clarity in any repeat lectures.)

    No, the quantum microfoundations of inflation appear to imply eternal hyperinflation, contradicting what we are looking for.

    Great reductio ad absurdum attack.

    We are then back in the world of statistical confidence intervals, and can reject the joint proposition of inflation as consistent with currently known theory assumptions, with 100% confidence. However we cannot have 100% confidence that these underlying theory assumptions will themselves remain robust over time.

    Torpedoed inflation theory at step 1

    Yes they should probably be released asap, suitably caveated that these are 1st indicative results only which are provisional and subject to review, correction and change.

    We can probably measure the historical change of acceleration of the visible universe.

    Excellent video thanks

    Gravitational effects compounding small initial inhomogeneities since the Big Bang + the large absolute volume of the observable universe in which to look for
    inhomogeneities.

    Great and clear video

    Yes, persuasive demonstration from principle of conservation of energy in closed system.

    Excellent and clear

    Excellent introduction
