 Matter-era density transfer from primordial curvature

For the regular growing mode in a purely matter-dominated flat background, $h=-2{\delta }_c$ and ${\delta }_c=C{\tau }^2$. The synchronous Einstein constraint $\mathcal{H}{h}^{\prime }+k^2{h}^{-}/3=3{\mathcal{H}}^2{\delta }_c$ with $\mathcal{H}=2/\tau$ gives $h^{-}=60C/k^2$. Hence $\zeta =h^{-}/6+{\delta }_c/3=10C/k^2+C{\tau }^2/3$, conserved to leading order on superhorizon scales. Identifying its early constant value gives the displayed density transfer; it includes a $k^2$ factor that is factored out of the conventionally normalized matter transfer function.
