In the in-/out-state formalism we find the exact one-loop effective action of a massive scalar field in the global coordinates of de Sitter spaces, which is a gravity analog of the Heisenberg-Euler action in QED. The nonperturbative…
It has been suggested that infrared gravitons in de Sitter space may lead to a secular screening of the effective cosmological constant. This seems to clash with the naive expectation that the curvature scalar should stay constant due to…
It is well known that there should be a total cancellation of the IR divergences in unitary interacting field theories, such as QED and gravity. The cancellation should be at all orders between loop and tree level contributions to…
Soft gravitons produced by the expansion of de Sitter can be viewed as the Nambu-Goldstone bosons of spontaneously broken asymptotic symmetries of the de Sitter spacetime. We explicitly construct the associated charges, and show that acting…
We investigate infrared dynamics of four-dimensional Einstein gravity in de Sitter space. We set up a general framework to investigate dynamical scaling relations in quantum/classical gravitational theories. The conformal mode dependence of…
We investigate solutions that are dynamically evolving between asymptotically de Sitter and asymptotically anti-de Sitter regions in the context of Einstein gravity coupled to general matter fields in d dimensions. We demonstrate the…
We start with the consideration of the loop effects for light fields with non-zero mass in the expanding Poincar\'e patch of de Sitter space-time. We derive the Dyson-Schwinger equation, which sums up the leading infrared (growing with…
We numerically investigate a lattice regularized version of quantum electrodynamics in one spatial dimension (Schwinger model). We work at a density where lattice commensuration effects are important, and preclude analytic solution of the…
It is known that in the theory of light scalar fields during inflation, correlation functions suffer from infrared (IR) divergences or large IR loop corrections, leading to the breakdown of perturbation theory. In order to understand the…
A geometric interpretation of the spontaneous symmetry breaking effect, which plays a key role in the Standard Model, is developed. The advocated approach is related to the effective use of the momentum 4-spaces of the constant curvature,…
We study the infrared (long distance) behavior of the free photon field in de Sitter spacetime. Using a two-parameter family of gauge fixing terms, we show that the infrared (IR) behavior of the two-point function is highly gauge-dependent…
During this work, using subtraction renormalization mechanism, zero point quantum fluctuations for bosonic scalar fields in a de-Sitter like background are investigated. By virtue of the observed value for spectral index, $n_s(k)$, for…
Interacting dark sector (IDS) models provide a commonly explored extension of the standard $\Lambda$CDM cosmology, allowing for non-gravitational energy--momentum exchange between cold dark matter (CDM) and dark energy (DE). Although such…
We study the backreaction on the mean field geometry due to a non-conformal quantum field in a Robertson-Walker background. In the regime of small mass and small deviation from conformal coupling, we compute perturbatively the expectation…
We discuss various questions which emerge in connection with the Lie-algebraic deformation of $\mathbb{CP}^1$ sigma model in two dimensions. First we supersymmetrize the original model endowing it with the minimal ${\cal N}=(0,2)$ and…
In de Sitter space, the gravitational fluctuation at the super-horizon scale may make physical quantities time dependent by breaking the de Sitter symmetry. We adopt the Kadanoff-Baym approach to evaluate soft gravitational effects in a…
In terms of the Beltrami model of de Sitter space we show that there is an interchangeable relation between Snyder's quantized space-time model in dS-space of momenta at the Planck length $\ell_P=(G\hbar c^{-3})^{1/2}$ and the dS-invariant…
We analyze the asymptotic behavior of quantum fields and perturbative quantum gravity in de Sitter space. We show that the necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a de Sitter invariant vacuum state in the free theory is if…
We exploit a recent computation of one graviton loop corrections to the self-mass [1] to quantum-correct the field equation for a massless, conformally coupled scalar on a de Sitter background. With the obvious choice for the finite part of…
According to inflationary cosmology, the CMB anisotropy gives an opportunity to test predictions of new physics hypotheses. The initial state of quantum fluctuations is one of the important options at high energy scale, as it can affect…
