The above approach presumes inflation and speculates about the low energy signature of Lorentz violating physics.
Lorentz violation can also be a component in the so-called variable speed of light (VSL) cosmologies (for a review
see [209]) which are a possible alternative to inflation. Some bounds on VSL theories are known from Lorentz
symmetry tests, but in these cases the VSL model can be equivalently expressed in one of the frameworks of this
review.
