We study the momentum-space entanglement between the sub- and super-Hubble modes of a spectator scalar field, with a cubic $\lambda \phi^3$ interaction, in de Sitter space. Momentum-space entanglement has some universal properties for any…

We obtain D=6, N=(1,1) de Sitter supergravity from a hyperbolic reduction of the massive type IIA* theory. We construct a smooth cosmological solution in which the co-moving time runs from an infinite past, which is dS_4\times S^2, to an…

We consider scalar field theory on the RP^3 de Sitter spacetime (RP3dS), which is locally isometric to de Sitter space (dS) but has spatial topology RP^3. We compare the Euclidean vacua on RP3dS and dS in terms of three quantities that are…
