Description
We investigate the nature of inflationary parameters at large values of the number of e-foldings N. We analyze the behaviour of the inflationary field range in such a limit and provide strong evidence for universality features of it. Finally, we use these results in order to derive a model-independent field range bound as a function even of the spectral index. We show that Planck's measurement of the tilt leads to a much more stringent bound than the usual estimate.
