In AdS_{2p+1} we construct propagators for p-forms whose lagrangians contain terms of the form A / d A. In particular we explore the case of forms satisfying ``self duality in odd dimensions'', and the case of forms with a topological mass…
In this brief note we construct the propagator for the antisymmetric tensor in AdS_{d+1}. We check our result using the Poincare duality between the antisymmetric tensor and the gauge boson in AdS_5. This propagator was needed for a…
Using the known propagator equations for 0,1 and 2 forms in AdS_{d+1}, we find the p-form field propagator equations in dimensions where the forms are Poincare dual. Since the general equation obeyed by the propagators is linear in…
We summarize part of a systematic study of particle dynamics on $AdS_{N+1}$ space-time based on Hamiltonian methods. New explicit UIR's of SO(2,N), defined on certain spaces of holomorphic functions, are constructed. The connection to some…
We construct the gauge invariant part of the propagator for the massless gravitino in AdS(d+1) by coupling it to a conserved current. We also derive the propagator for the massive gravitino.
We develop the embedding formalism to describe symmetric traceless tensors in Anti-de Sitter space. We use this formalism to construct the bulk-to-bulk propagator of massive spin J fields and check that it has the expected short distance…
We compute the propagator for massless and massive scalar fields in the metric of the pp-wave. The retarded propagator for the massless field is found to stay confined to the surface formed by null geodesics. The algebraic form of the…
In this master thesis a configuration space method presented by C. Dullemond and E. van Beveren for computing all propagators of a scalar field (Wightman, Hadamard and Schwinger functions,retarded, advanced and Feynman propagator) is…
We construct the graviton propagator in $n$-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime in the most general covariant gauge. We then study the behaviour of this propagator for different values of the gauge parameters. We will show that in any…
We numerically investigate the application of the path-sum-based causal set scalar propagator construction to (1+1)-dimensional Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. Building upon a generalization of Johnston's path sum approach, we simulate…
In this paper, we correct an inaccurate result of previous works on the Feynman propagator in position space of a free Dirac field in (3+1)-dimensional spacetime, and we derive the generalized analytic formulas of both the scalar Feynman…
We compute the Pauli-Jordan, Hadamard and Feynman propagators for the massive metrical perturbations on de Sitter space. They are expressed both in terms of mode sums and in invariant forms.
Recently, new superparticle models have been proposed in the $\mathcal{N}$-extended four and five-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) superspaces, AdS$^{4|4\mathcal{N}}$ and AdS$^{5|8\mathcal{N}}$, making use of a unique quadratic deformation…
We derive the propagators for higher-spin master fields in anti-de Sitter space of arbitrary dimension. A method is developed to construct the propagators directly without solving any differential equations. The use of the ambient space,…
In this paper, we investigate how AdS scalar propagators are represented in the celestial basis. Starting from the standard bulk-to-boundary propagator in Euclidean AdS space, we express the propagator in a Schwinger parametrization and…
We generalize a recent ``AdS S-matrix" formulation for interacting massive scalars on AdS spacetimes to the case of massive vector fields. This method relies on taking the infinite radius limit for scattering processes perturbatively, which…

We discuss the scalar propagator on generic AdS_{d+1} x S^{d'+1} backgrounds. For the conformally flat situations and masses corresponding to Weyl invariant actions the propagator is powerlike in the sum of the chordal distances with…
In this thesis we study embedding formalisms for $\mathcal{N}$-extended anti-de Sitter (AdS) superspaces in four and five dimensions. Specifically, building on earlier work in the four-dimensional case, we develop bi-supertwistor…
This paper is devoted to the computation of discrete propagators in two-dimensional crystals and their application to a number of time dependent problems. The methods to compute such kernels are provided by a tight-binding representation of…
