de Sitter Gravity from Lattice Gauge Theory
We investigate a lattice model for Euclidean quantum gravity based on discretization of the Palatini formulation of General Relativity. Using Monte Carlo simulation we show that while a naive approach fails to lead to a vacuum state consistent with the emergence of classical spacetime, this problem may be evaded if the lattice action is supplemented by an appropriate counter term. In this new m...
متن کاملSymmetries, Matrices, and de Sitter Gravity
Using simple algebraic methods along with an analogy to the BFSS model, we explore the possible (target) spacetime symmetries that may appear in a matrix description of de Sitter gravity. Such symmetry groups could arise in two ways, one from an “IMF” like construction and the other from a “DLCQ” like construction. In contrast to the flat space case, we show that the two constructions will lead...
متن کاملGauge-gravity correspondence in de Sitter braneworld
We study the braneworld solutions based on a solvable model of 5d gauged supergravity with two scalars of conformal dimension three, which correspond to bilinear operators of fermions in the dual N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory on the boundary. An accelerating braneworld solution is obtained when both scalars are taken as the form of deformations of the super Yang-Mills theory and the bulk supers...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity In De Sitter Space
We discuss some general properties of quantum gravity in de Sitter space. It has been argued that the Hilbert space is of finite dimension. This suggests a macroscopic argument that General Relativity cannot be quantized – unless it is embedded in a more complete theory that determines the value of the cosmological constant. We give a definition of the quantum Hilbert space using the asymptotic...
متن کاملDe Sitter Gravity and Liouville Theory
We show that the spectrum of conical defects in three-dimensional de Sitter space is in one-toone correspondence with the spectrum of vertex operators in Liouville conformal field theory. The classical conformal dimensions of vertex operators are equal to the masses of the classical point particles in dS3, that cause the conical defect. The quantum dimensions instead are shown to coincide with ...
