A dynamical aspect of quantum gravity on de Sitter spacetime is investigated by holography or the dS/CFT correspondence. We show that de Sitter spacetime emerges from a free Sp(N) vector model by complexifying the ghost fields and flowing…
We study how quantum field theory models are modified under the reparametrizations of the space-time coordinates and some simultaneous transformations of the field function. The transformations that turn the action of the massive field in…

We investigate the details of the canonical quantization of effective quantum field theories in anti-de Sitter spacetime, emphasizing the stability of the quantum vacuum. We take the scalar and Maxwell fields as examples. For the…
Before we ask what the quantum gravity theory is, it is a legitimate quest to formulate a robust quantum field theory in curved spacetime (QFTCS). Several conceptual problems, especially unitarity loss (pure states evolving into mixed…
A new non-perturbative approach to quantum theory in curved spacetime and to quantum gravity, based on a generalisation of the Wigner equation, is proposed. Our definition for a Wigner equation differs from what have otherwise been…

The generalized kinetic term of a dilaton gives the classical superinflation without recourse to any potential, and the quantum version of the dilaton gravity exhibits the finite curvature and graceful exit. For $p=2$ case, the model…
Multidimensional cosmological models with $n~(n > 1)$ Einstein spaces are discussed classically and with respect to canonical quantization. These models are integrable in the case of Ricci flat internal spaces. For negative curvature of the…
It is possible to associate temperatures with the non-extremal horizons of a large class of spherically symmetric spacetimes using periodicity in the Euclidean sector and this procedure works for the de Sitter spacetime as well. But, unlike…
We demonstrate in detail how the space of two-dimensional quantum field theories can be parametrized by off-shell closed string states. The dynamic equation corresponding to the condition of conformal invariance includes an infinite number…
Recent cosmological observations suggest the existence of a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$ with the magnitude $\Lambda(G\hbar/c^3) \approx 10^{-123}$. This review discusses several aspects of the cosmological constant both from…

A solution of the sourceless Einstein's equation with an infinite value for the cosmological constant \Lambda is discussed by using Inonu-Wigner contractions of the de Sitter groups and spaces. When \Lambda --> infinity, spacetime becomes a…

The replacement of the Poincar\'e-invariant Einstein special relativity by a de Sitter-invariant special relativity produces concomitant changes in all relativistic theories, including general relativity. A crucial change in the latter is…
