We consider degrees of freedom for a quantum de Sitter spacetime. The problem is studied from both a Lorentzian and a Euclidean perspective. From a Lorentzian perspective, we compute dynamical properties of the static patch de Sitter…

Memory effects are ubiquitous in nature and are particularly relevant at the nanoscale where the dynamical properties of electrons and ions strongly depend on the history of the system, at least within certain time scales. We review here…

We provide a very general argument showing that the Universe must have kept its quantum memories from an epoch much earlier than $60$ e-foldings before the end of inflation. The point is that a generic system of enhanced memory storage…

We start with the consideration of the loop effects for light fields with non-zero mass in the expanding Poincar\'e patch of de Sitter space-time. We derive the Dyson-Schwinger equation, which sums up the leading infrared (growing with…

We present a simple group representation analysis of massive, and particularly ``partially massless'', fields of arbitrary spin in de Sitter spaces of any dimension. The method uses bulk to boundary propagators to relate these fields to…

In this work, we compute the gravitational wave displacement and spin memory effects in de Sitter spacetime. Gravitational waves in asymptotically flat spacetimes are described by the Bondi-Sachs framework, where radiation at null infinity…

Under an oscillating mechanical drive, an amorphous material progressively forgets its initial configuration and might eventually converge to a limit cycle. Beyond quasistatic drivings, how structurally disordered systems lose or record…

Exact and explicit string solutions in de Sitter spacetime are found. (Here, the string equations reduce to a sinh-Gordon model). A new feature without flat spacetime analogy appears: starting with a single world-sheet, several (here two)…

Starting from the equation of motion of the quantum operator of a real scalar field phi in de Sitter space-time, a simple differential equation is derived which describes the evolution of quantum fluctuations <phi^2> of this field. Full de…

We study the effect of fractal initial conditions in closed reactive systems in the cases of both mobile and immobile reactants. For the reaction $A+A\to A$, in the absence of diffusion, the mean number of particles $A$ is shown to decay…

The decay rate of the Bunch-Davies state of a massive scalar field in the expanding flat spatial sections of de Sitter space is determined by an analysis of the particle pair creation process in real time. The Feynman definition of particle…

Understanding possible universal properties for systems far from equilibrium is much less developed than for their equilibrium counterparts and poses a major challenge to present day statistical physics. The study of aging properties, and…

A two-dimensional lattice system of non-interacting electrons in a homogeneous magnetic field with half a flux quantum per plaquette and a random potential is considered. For the large scale behavior a supersymmetric theory with collective…

We consider a cosmological brane moving in a static five-dimensional bulk spacetime endowed with a scalar field whose potential is exponential. After studying various cosmological behaviours for the homogeneous background, we investigate…

We study scalar field fluctuations of the inflaton field in an early inflationary universe on an effective 4D Schwarzschild-de Sitter (SdS) metric, which is obtained after make a planar coordinate transformation on a 5D Ricci-flat…

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in theories formulated in anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. However, AdS spacetime fails to be globally hyperbolic, so a classical field satisfying a hyperbolic wave equation on AdS…

In the usual brane-world scenario matter fields are confined to the four-dimensional spacetime, called a 3-brane, embedded in a higher-dimensional space, usually referred to as the bulk spacetime. In this paper we assume that the 3-brane is…

In this paper, we study the correspondence between a field theory in de Sitter space in $D$-dimensions and a dual conformal field theory in a euclidean space in $(D-1)$-dimensions. In particular, we investigate the form in which this…

We introduce super exponential inflation ($\omega < -1$) from a 5D Riemann-flat canonical metric on which we make a dynamical foliation. The resulting metric describes a super accelerated expansion for the early universe well-known as super…

Methods and concepts for the study of phase transitions mediated by a time-dependent order-parameter field in curved spacetimes are discussed. A practical example is the derivation of an effective (quasi-)potential for the description of…
