An introductory, self-contained overview, with pedagogical figures, is provided to acquaint readers unfamiliar with the subjects with key aspects of de Sitter space and inflation. The connection between de Sitter space and cosmology is…
We introduce and study an extension of the correlator of unparticle matter operators in a cosmological environment. Starting from FRW spaces we specialize to a de Sitter spacetime and derive its inflationary power spectrum which we find to…
We argue that the Ising model CFT can be used to obtain some clear insights into 3D (quantum) gravity with matter. We review arguments for the existence of its holographic description, and concentrate on the time dependence of perturbations…

Critical exponents are computed for a variety of twist-2 composite operators, which occur in polarized and unpolarized deep inelastic scattering, at leading order in the 1/N_f expansion. The resulting d-dimensional expressions, which depend…
During inflation, the geometry of spacetime is described by a (quasi-)de Sitter phase. Inflationary observables are determined by the underlying (softly broken) de Sitter isometry group SO(1, 4) which acts like a conformal group on R^3:…

We investigate the scaling behavior of the critical temperature of anisotropic QED in 2+1 dimensions with respect to a variation of the number of fermions N_f. To this end we determine the order parameter of the chiral transition of the…

Based on the Effective Field Theory (EFT) of cosmological perturbations, we explicitly clarify the pathology in nonsingular cubic Galileon models and show how to cure it in EFT with new insights into this issue. With the least set of EFT…
We present a new analytic approach to describe large scale structure formation in the mildly non-linear regime. The central object of the method is the time-dependent probability distribution function generating correlators of the…
The approximate late conformal time wavefunction for self-interacting scalar quantum fields in de Sitter space is computed. It dominates for conformal times much larger than a certain critical value, $\eta=\eta_{\text{crit}}$ which depends…
Parametric scaling representations are obtained and studied for the asymptotic behavior of interfacial tensions in the \textit{full} neighborhood of a fluid (or Ising-type) critical endpoint, i.e., as a function \textit{both} of temperature…
In Ising model on the simple cubic lattice, we describe the inverse temperature \beta in terms of the bare-mass M and study its critical behavior by the use of delta expansion from high temperature or large M side. In the vicinity of…
We study finite-coupling effects of QFT on a rigid de Sitter (dS) background taking the $O(N)$ vector model at large $N$ as a solvable example. Extending standard large $N$ techniques to the dS background, we analyze the phase structure and…
