Infrared Divergences in dS/CFT
نویسندگان
چکیده
dS/CFT gives a perturbatively gauge invariant definition of particle masses in de Sitter (dS) space. We show, in a toy model in which the graviton is replaced with a minimally coupled massless scalar field, that loop corrections to these masses are infrared (IR) divergent. We argue that this implies anomalous dependence of masses on the cosmological constant, in a true theory of quantum gravity. This is in accord with the hypothesis of Cosmological SUSY Breaking (CSB).

Yang’s Quantized Space-time Algebra and Holographic Hypothesis
The present-day significance of Yang’s quantized space-time algebra (YST) is pointed out from the holographic viewpoint. One finds that the D-dimensional YST and its modified version (MYST) have the background symmetry SO(D+1,1) and SO(D,2), which are well known to underlie the dS/CFT and AdS/CFT correspondences, respectively. This fact suggests a new possibility of dS/YST and AdS/MYST in paral...
متن کاملMore Thoughts on the Quantum Theory of Stable de Sitter Space
I review and update ideas about the quantum theory of de Sitter space. New results include a quantum relation between energy and entropy of states in the causal patch, which is satisfied by small dS black holes. I also discuss the preliminaries of a quantum theory in global coordinates, which is invariant under a q-deformed version of the de Sitter supergroup. In this context I outline an algeb...
متن کاملDs Meson and Their Radiative Corrections
The radiative corrections to the pure leptonic decay Ds−→lνl up-to one-loop order is presented. We find the virtual photon loop corrections to Ds−→τντ is negative and the corresponding branching ratio is larger than 3.51×10−3 . Considering the possible experimental resolutions, our prediction of the radiative decay Ds−→τντγ is not so large as others, and the best channel to determine the Vcs or...
متن کاملBrane New World and dS/CFT correspondence
The occurence of 5d de Sitter space with 4d de Sitter brane is discussed on classical and quantum level. It is shown that quantum effects maybe produced by dual CFT living on the brane. Moreover, gravity trapping on the brane is proved via the presentation of 5d dS gravity as 4d gravity coupled with gauge theory. This supports the dS/CFT correspondence. Some open questions in 5d dS/4d CFT corre...
متن کامل4D Scattering Amplitudes and Asymptotic Symmetries from 2D CFT
We reformulate the scattering amplitudes of 4D flat space gauge theory and gravity in the language of a 2D CFT on the celestial sphere. The resulting CFT structure exhibits an OPE constructed from 4D collinear singularities, as well as infinite-dimensional Kac-Moody and Virasoro algebras encoding the asymptotic symmetries of 4D flat space. We derive these results by recasting 4D dynamics in ter...
