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…
We rederive the characters of all unitary irreducible representations of the $(d+1)$-dimensional de Sitter spacetime isometry algebra $\mathfrak{so}(1,d+1)$, and propose a dictionary between those representations and massive or (partially)…
We propose a new approach for constructing the late-time conformal boundary of quantum field theory in de Sitter spacetime. A boundary theory which consists of a continuous family of primary operators residing on unitary irreducible…
The covariant free fields of any spin on anti-de Sitter spacetimes are studied, pointing out that these transform under isometries according to covariant representations of the anti-de Sitter isometry group, induced by those of the Lorentz…
We demonstrate how free massive scalar fields in the set up that usually appears in early universe inflationary studies, correspond to the principal series and complementary series representations of the group SO(d+1,1) by introducing…
Certain aspects of three dimensional asymptotically de Sitter spaces are studied, with emphasis on the mapping between gravity observables and the representation of the conformal symmetry of the boundary. In particular, we show that…
We give a group-theoretic interpretation of relativistic holography as equivalence between representations of the anti de Sitter algebra describing bulk fields and boundary fields. Our main result is the explicit construction of the…
Scalar unitary representations of the isometry group of $d$-dimensional de Sitter space $SO(1,d)$ are labeled by their conformal weights $\Delta$. A salient feature of de Sitter space is that scalar fields with sufficiently large mass…
We present the dictionary between the one-particle Hilbert spaces of totally symmetric tensor-spinor fields of spin $s={3}/{2}, {5}/{2}$ with any mass parameter on $D$-dimensional ($D \geq 3$) de Sitter space ($dS_{D}$) and Unitary…
We discuss the symmetry aspects of quantum field theory in global four-dimensional de Sitter spacetime linked to $SO(1,4)$ isometries. For the unitary irreducible representations relevant to elementary particles, we obtain explicit…
The representation theory of de Sitter space admits partially massless (PM) particles, but whether such particles can participate in consistent interacting theories remains unclear. We investigate the consistency of theories containing PM…
We calculate two-point functions of scalar fields of mass $m$ and their conjugate momenta at the late-time boundary of de Sitter with Bunch-Davies boundary conditions, in general $d+1$ spacetime dimensions. We perform the calculation using…
Recalling the universal covering group of de Sitter, the transformation properties of the spinor fields $\psi(x)$ and ${\bar\psi}(x)$, in the ambient space notation, are presented in this paper. The charge conjugation symmetry of the de…
We consider the consequences of global higher-spin symmetries in quantum field theories on a fixed de Sitter background of spacetime dimension $D \ge 3$. These symmetries enhance the symmetry group associated with the isometries of the de…
We investigate representations of the conformal group that describe "massless" particles in the interior and at the boundary of anti-de Sitter space. It turns out that massless gauge excitations in anti-de Sitter are gauge "current"…
The properties of the covariant quantum fields on de Sitter spacetimes are investigated focusing on the isometry generators and Casimir operators in order to establish the equivalence among the covariant representations and the unitary…
We revisit the literature on locality on de Sitter with the goal to organize the main results with respect to the representation theory of the isometry group of four dimensional de Sitter. We make use of the late-time behavior of two-point…
The group $SO(d+1,1)$ makes an appearance both as the conformal group of Euclidean space in $d$ dimensions and as the isometry group of de Sitter spacetime in $d+1$ dimensions. While this common feature can be taken as a hint towards…
We show that the induced representations of the de Sitter isometry group proposed many years ago by Nachtmann are equivalent to those derived from our general theory of external symmetry. These methods complete each other leading to a…
The late time limit of the power spectrum for heavy (principal series) fields in de Sitter space yields a series of polynomial terms with complex scaling dimensions. Such scaling behavior is expected to result from an associated operator…
