The two-point function of linearized gravitons on de Sitter space is infrared divergent in the standard transverse traceless synchronous gauge defined by $k=0$ cosmological coordinates (also called conformal or Poincare coordinates). We…

We study non-equilibrium initial states of quantum fields in curved space-time and develop a framework for describing global quenches as unitary perturbations of the initial density matrix. Using the Keldysh-Schwinger functional integral,…

We argue that if de Sitter space is indeed represented by a finite dimensional quantum system, then semi-classical considerations, combined with the fundamental principles of quantum measurement theory, imply that any theoretical model of…

We present new infinitesimal `conformal-like' symmetries for the field equations of strictly massless spin-$s \geq 3/2$ totally symmetric tensor-spinors (i.e. gauge potentials) on 4-dimensional de Sitter spacetime ($dS_{4}$). The…

Two different systems of the generalized coherent states for the de Sitter group are constructed. These systems have the physical sense of particles and antiparticles over de Sitter space and obeys the Klein-Gordon equation. Using these…

We introduce a new mechanism for producing locally stable de-Sitter or Minkowski vacua, with spontaneously broken N=1 supersymmetry and no massless scalars, applicable to superstring and M-theory compactifications with fluxes. We illustrate…
