Celestial Holography meets dS/CFT

Abstract

We provide a concrete link between celestial amplitudes and cosmological correlators. We first construct a map from quantum field theories (QFTs) in (D+2)(D+2)-dimensional Euclidean space to theories on the (D+1)(D+1)-dimensional sphere, through a Weyl rescaling and a Fourier transformation. An analytic continuation extends this map to a relation between QFTs in Minkowski spacetime MD+2\text{M}_{D+2} and in de Sitter spacetime dSD+1\text{dS}_{D+1} with the Bunch-Davies vacuum. Combining this relation with celestial holography, we show that the extrapolated operators in de Sitter space can be represented by operators on the celestial sphere SDS^{D}. Our framework offers a systematic route to transfer computational techniques and physical insights between celestial holography and the dS/CFT correspondence.
