The spectrum of cosmological perturbations in the context of the one-bubble
open inflation model is discussed, taking into account fluctuations of the
metric. We find that, quite generically,thin wall single field models have
no supercurvature modes. However, single field models with supercurvature
modes do exist. In these models the density parameter Omega becomes a rando
m variable taking a range of values inside of each bubble. We also show tha
t the model dependence of the continuous spectrum for both scalar and tense
r-type perturbations is small as long as the kinetic energy density of the
background field does not dominate the total energy density. We conclude th
at the spectrum of the density perturbation predicted in the single-field m
odel of the one-bubble open inflation is rather robust. We also consider th
e spectrum of scalar and tensor perturbations in a model of the Hawking-Tur
ok type, without a false vacuum. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
