Original abstract

In this work, we present the procedure to find series representations of tree-level cosmological correlators using the Kontorovich-Lebedev-Fourier (KLF) space formalism. This framework allows us to trade the in-in nested time integrals for frequency integrals over rational propagators and vertex functions, which encode interactions among quantum fields on a de Sitter background. Because these functions are the key objects to understand in order to perform a diagrammatic computation, we derive their relevant analytic properties by using both their integral representation and series representation in terms of Lauricella functions. For a vertex involving any number of fields, we obtain the location of singularities, the corresponding residues and the large-frequency asymptotic behaviour. Gathering these properties at each frequency integration allows us to compute a tree-level correlator directly, without relying on the differential equations it satisfies. To illustrate this procedure, we provide a complete treatment of the double-exchange diagram. The computation naturally distinguishes the different physical contributions, whether to the background or to the cosmological collider signal. The newly derived result is expressed at most in terms of a double series over hypergeometric functions, which simplifies the analytical expression of the correlator.
