Scalar bispectrum beyond slow-roll in the unified EFT of inflation

We introduce a complete formulation of the scalar bispectrum in the unified effective field theory(EFT) of inflation, which includes the Horndeski and beyond-Horndeski Gleyzes-Langlois-Piazza-Vernizzi classes, in terms of a set of simple one-dimensional integrals. These generalized slow-rollexpressions remain valid even when slow-roll is transiently violated and encompass all configurationsof the bispectrum. We demonstrate analytically that our expressions explicitly preserve the squeezed-limitconsistency relation beyond slow-roll. As an example application of our results, we compute thescalar bispectrum in a model in which potential-driven G-inflation at early times transitions tochaotic inflation at late times, showing that our expressions accurately track the bispectrum whenslow-roll is violated and conventional slow-roll approximations fail
