Abstract

We show that the correspondence among AdS3/CFT2AdS_{3}/CFT_{2}, the 1D Schwarzian Model, Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model and 2+1D Topological Quantum Gravity can be extended to the case of dS3/CFT2dS_{3}/CFT_{2}. The RR-matrix, related to the gravitational scattering amplitude near the horizon of dS3dS_{3} black hole, corresponds (on the side of the holographic projection) to a crossing kernel in the Schwarzian Model. The RR-matrix is related to the 6j-symbol of SU(1,1)(1,1). We also find that in the Euclidean dS3dS_{3} a new Kac-Moody symmetry of instantons emerges out. We dub these new solutions {\it Kac-Moodions}. A one-to-one correspondence of Kac-Moodion levels and SU(2)(2) spin representations is established. Every instanton then corresponds to spin representations deployed in Topological Quantum Gravity. The instantons are directly connected to the Black Hole entropy, as punctures on its horizon. This strongly supports the recent proposal, in arXiv:1707.00347, that a Kac-Moody symmetry of gravitational instantons is related to the black hole information processing. We also comment on a further correspondence that can be established between the Schwarzian Model and non-commutative spacetimes in 2+1D, passing through the equivalence with Topological Quantum Gravity with cosmological constant, in the limit when the latter vanishes.
