    As one of the promising candidates of cold dark matter (DM), primordial black holes (PBHs) were formed due to the collapse of over-densed regions generated by the enhanced curvature perturbations during the radiation-dominated era. The enhanced curvature perturbations are expected to be non-Gaussian in some relevant inflation models and hence the higher-order loop corrections to the curvature power spectrum might be non-negligible as well as altering the abundance of PBHs. In this paper, we calculate the one-loop correction to the curvature power spectrum with local-type non-Gaussianities characterizing by FNLF_{\mathrm{NL}} and GNLG_{\mathrm{NL}} standing for the quadratic and cubic non-Gaussian parameters, respectively. Requiring that the one-loop correction be subdominant, we find a perturbativity condition, namely ∣2cAFNL2+6AGNL∣β‰ͺ1|2cAF_{\mathrm{NL}}^2+6AG_{\mathrm{NL}}|\ll 1, where cc is a constant coefficient which can be explicitly calculated in the given model and AA denotes the variance of Gaussian part of enhanced curvature perturbation, and such a perturbativity condition can provide a stringent constraint on the relevant inflation models for the formation of PBHs.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
