| Details: | I will give a brief review of inflationary cosmology and describe recent progress based on string theory with stabilized internal dimensions. These developments lead to a different outlook on inflationary theory, on the theory of dark energy, and on the possibility to discover gravitational waves produced during inflation. I will also discuss string theory landscape and the probability measure in eternal inflation. |
