Abstract

Recent large scale structure observations, including COBE, have prompted many authors to discuss modifications of the standard Cold Dark Matter model. Two of these, a tilted spectrum and a gravitational wave contribution to COBE, are at some level demanded by theory under the usual assumption that inflation generates the primeval perturbations. The third, whose motivation comes by contrast from observation, is the introduction of a component of hot dark matter to give the Mixed Dark Matter model. We discuss the implication of taking these modifications together. Should Mixed Dark Matter prove necessary, very strong constraints on inflationary models will ensue.
