Exploring de Sitter space and holography

V Balasubramanian, J de Boer, D Minic - Annals of Physics, 2003 - Elsevier
We explore aspects of the physics of de Sitter (dS) space that are relevant to holography
with a positive cosmological constant. First we display a non-local map that commutes with …

Gravitational Wilson lines in 3D de Sitter

A Castro, P Sabella-Garnier, C Zukowski - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We construct local probes in the static patch of Euclidean dS 3 gravity. These
probes are Wilson line operators, designed by exploiting the Chern-Simons formulation of …

Phase spaces for asymptotically de Sitter cosmologies

WR Kelly, D Marolf - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
We construct two types of phase spaces for asymptotically de Sitter Einstein–Hilbert gravity
in each spacetime dimension d⩾ 3. One type contains solutions asymptotic to the expanding …

Statistical mechanics of three-dimensional Kerr-de Sitter space

MI Park - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
The statistical entropy computation of the (2+ 1)-dimensional Kerr-de Sitter space in the
context of the classical Virasoro algebra for an asymptotic isometry group has been a …
