Outline of Final Research Achievements

It is believed that the universe has undergone a stage of accelerated expansion, an inflationary stage, right after the birth, and all the fluctuations that are responsible for the structure of the universe today were generated during this stage. One of the most important issues in cosmology is to understand how these fluctuations have evolved to the large scale structure of the universe such as galaxies through nonlinear and non-perturbative gravitational phenomena. In this project, we have systematically investigated various types of fluctuations, from microscopic quantum fluctuations to macroscopic fluctuations of spacetime, and obtained many world top-class results. These results form an important basis for the future direction of research in cosmology.
