The Vacuum of de Sitter Space
To resolve infrared problems with the de Sitter invariant vacuum, we argue that the history of the de Sitter phase is crucial. We illustrate how either (1) the diagonalization of the Hamiltonian for long-wavelength modes or (2) an explicit modification of the metric in the distant past leads to natural infrared cutoffs. The former case resembles a bosonic superconductor in which graviton-pairin...
متن کاملSqueezed States in the de Sitter Vacuum
We discuss the treatment of squeezed states as excitations in the Euclidean vacuum of de Sitter space. A comparison with the treatment of these states as candidate noparticle states, or alpha-vacua, shows important differences already in the free theory. At the interacting level alpha-vacua are inconsistent, but squeezed state excitations seem perfectly acceptable. Indeed, matrix elements can b...
متن کاملStatistical Entropy of De Sitter Space
Quantum gravity in 2+1 dimensions with a positive cosmological constant can be represented as an SL(2,C) Chern-Simons gauge theory. The symmetric vacuum of this theory is a degenerate configuration for which the gauge fields and spacetime metric vanish, while de Sitter space corresponds to a highly excited thermal state. Carlip’s approach to black hole entropy can be adapted in this context to ...
متن کاملEntanglement Entropy in the σ-Model with the de Sitter Target Space
We derive the formula of the entanglement entropy between the left and right oscillating modes of the σ-model with the de Sitter target space. To this end, we study the theory in the cosmological gauge in which the non-vanishing components of the metric on the two-dimensional base space are functions of the expansion parameter of the de Sitter space. The model is embedded in the causal north po...
متن کاملGhost inflation and de Sitter entropy
In the setup of ghost condensation model the generalized second law of black hole thermodynamics can be respected under a radiatively stable assumption that couplings between the field responsible for ghost condensate and matter fields such as those in the Standard Model are suppressed by the Planck scale. Since not only black holes but also cosmology are expected to play important roles toward...
