David H. Lyth focuses on Perturbation, Astrophysics, Inflation, Inflaton and Cosmic microwave background. David H. Lyth combines subjects such as Mathematical physics, Quantum electrodynamics, Classical mechanics, Non-Gaussianity and Anisotropy with his study of Perturbation. The De Sitter universe and Galaxy research David H. Lyth does as part of his general Astrophysics study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Upper and lower bounds, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His work on Cosmological perturbation theory is typically connected to Waterfall as part of general Inflation study, connecting several disciplines of science. The concepts of his Inflaton study are interwoven with issues in Supersymmetry, Particle physics, Planck and CMB cold spot. His Cosmic microwave background research integrates issues from Dipole, Universe, Kinetic term and Asymmetry.

Between 2007 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • The Primordial Density Perturbation: Cosmology, Inflation and the Origin of Structure (283 citations)
  • Non-Gaussianity as a Probe of the Physics of the Primordial Universe and the Astrophysics of the Low Redshift Universe (175 citations)
  • The Primordial Density Perturbation (168 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • General relativity
  • Particle physics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Perturbation, Inflation, Non-Gaussianity, Cosmological perturbation theory and Inflaton. His study in the fields of Curvature perturbation under the domain of Perturbation overlaps with other disciplines such as Light field. The subject of his Inflation research is within the realm of Theoretical physics.

His work carried out in the field of Non-Gaussianity brings together such families of science as Redshift, Gravitational lens and Particle physics. His Cosmological perturbation theory research includes themes of Bispectrum, Cosmic background radiation, Classical mechanics and Mathematical physics.
