Classic inflation, the theory described in textbooks, is based on the idea that, beginning from typical initial conditions and assuming a simple inflaton potential with a minimum of finetuning, inflation can create exponentially large volumes of space that are generically homogeneous, isotropic and flat, with nearly scaleinvariant spectra of density and gravitational.
