Abstract:

There is strong observational evidence now that the Universe has experienced an almost exponential expansion at its very early stage, called inflation. In this talk I first review the inflationary universe and its observational predictions. Then I discuss possible future directions beyond and behind theory of inflation, and their observational signatures.
