Cosmology

an inflation scenario in which inflation begins in regions where a scalar field happens to take large initial values, without a prior phase transition.

In cosmology, chaotic inflation refers to an inflation scenario in which inflation begins in regions where a scalar field happens to take large initial values, without a prior phase transition. This meaning comes from Linde (1983) in Physics Letters B.[1]
