| dc.description | In a recent paper, Parker and Zhang [1] consider cosmological perturbations that can be possibly produced in the early Universe. This is an interesting problem having important observational implications. The paper of Parker and Zhang is transparent and honest, in the sense that the authors clearly identify what they derive and what they use from the previous literature. The final numerical estimates of the paper~[1] rely entirely on a formula which the authors take from the inflationary literature. This formula, see Eqs.~(22), (43), relates the amplitude of perturbations today with the amplitude of perturbations during the inflationary stage. The formula suggests an enormous increase of the amplitude, if the equation of state at the inflationary phase has happened to be sufficiently close to the de Sitter one. The point of my comment is that this formula is incorrect, as we will see below, and the results based on this formula cannot be trusted. | |
