The usual (Bunch-Davies) Feynman propagator of a massless field is not well defined in an expanding universe due to the presence of infrared divergences. We propose a new propagator which yields infrared finite answers to any correlation…

This paper deals with some two-parameter solutions to the spherically symmetric, vacuum Einstein equations which, we argue, are more general than de Sitter solution. The global structure of one such spacetimes and its extension to the…

Using generalized bosons, we construct the fuzzy sphere $S_F^2$ and monopoles on $S_F^2$ in a reducible representation of $SU(2)$. The corresponding quantum states are naturally obtained using the GNS-construction. We show that there is an…
