Abstract

We study covariant and gauge-invariant linear scalar perturbations of a scalar-field with positive exponential potential in a flat Robertson-Walker background. By applying a dynamical systems approach we investigate how the phase of the perturbations evolves, finding bounds on the wave-number in terms of the slope parameter, for which the perturbations decays when approaching the inflationary solution.
