Perturbative reconstruction During reconstruction, there are three types of expansion being carried out. There is an expansion in terms of observables, an expansion in terms of slow-roll parameters, and an expansion of the potential itself. Rev. Mod. Phys. 69. 373

Reconstruction of the inflation potential with Planck and BICEP 2 • Fix k at

Reconstruction of the inflation potential with Planck and BICEP 2 • Fix k at 0. 05, then we run MCMC. It could output the parameters that we need, including (A , n , α , r) at fix point k = 0. 05, using the formula 0 one can get the values of (A , n , α , r) at any point k, s s s above, s s s • Let ∆ ln k = − 1, using equation (10) or (15), it is easy to calculate the corresponding ∆φ, • For every lnki = lnk 0 +i∆lnk(i = 1, 2, 3, . . . ), we can compute the values of V(ki), V ′′(ki), V ′′′(ki) according to equations (22 -25). Also utilising the relationship between k and φ, one can rewrite the V (φi) and its high derivatives, • to use the interpolate method to reconstruct the inflation potential for a long range.

Summary • we reconstructed the primordial scalar power spectra using the cubic spline interpolation

Summary • we reconstructed the primordial scalar power spectra using the cubic spline interpolation method from recently CMB data, and find that the vanishing scalar index running model is disfavored at more than 3sigma level • the power-low parameterization gives a blut-tilt tensor spectrum, no matter using only the first 5 bandpowers or the full 9 bandpowers of the BICEP 2 data sets • Given that the hint of a large running of the scalar power spectrum, and a nonzero tensor-to-scalar ratio r, we reconstruct the inflationary potential in the perturbative reconstruction framework
