Abstract

The standard cosmological model says that the universe originates from the Big Bang, including an accelerating expanding process called inflation. The vacuum inflation model states that the universe comes from a small vacuum bubble derived the quantum effects of its own. A mathematical proof is given for the inflation of vacuum which may be tested by the future observation on the cosmic microwave background.
