In this work we consider a wide variety of alternatives opened when applyingthe continuous spontaneous localization (CSL) dynamical collapse theory to theinflationary era. The definitive resolution of many of the issues discussedhere will have to await, not only for a general relativistic CSL theory, butfor a fully workable theory of quantum gravity. Our concern here is to explorethese issues, and to warn against premature conclusions. This explorationincludes: two different approaches to deal with quantum field theory andgravitation, the identification of the collapse-generating operator and thegeneral nature and values of the parameters of the CSL theory. All the choicesconnected with these issues have the potential to dramatically alter theconclusions one can draw. We also argue that the incompatibilities found in arecent paper, between the CSL parameter values and the CMB observational data,are associated with specific choices made for the extrapolation to thecosmological context of the CSL theory (as it is known to work innon-relativistic laboratory situations) which do not represent the most naturalones.

Discussions about the landscape of possibilities for treatments of cosmic inflation involving continuous spontaneous localization models
