The non-Gaussianity in the primordial density fluctuations is a key
feature to clarify the early Universe and it has been probed with
the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) bispectrum. In recent years,
we have treated the novel-type CMB bispectra, which originate from
the vector- and tensor-mode perturbations and include the violation
of the rotational or parity invariance. On the basis of our current
works, this thesis provides the general formalism for the CMB
bispectrum sourced by the non-Gaussianity in the scalar, vector and
tensor-mode perturbations. Applying this formalism, we calculate
the CMB bispectra from the two scalars and a graviton correlation
and primordial magnetic fields, and then outline new constraints on
these magnitudes. Furthermore, this formalism can be easily
extended to the cases where the rotational or parity invariance is
broken. We also compute the CMB bispectra from the scalar-mode
non-Gaussianities with a preferred direction and the tensor-mode
non-Gaussianities induced by the parity-violating Weyl cubic terms.
Here, we show that these bispectra include unique signals, which
any symmetry-invariant models can never produce.
