Sitter Spacetime

The vacuum expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor and the Casimir forces are investigated for a massive scalar field with an arbitrary curvature coupling parameter in the geometry of two parallel plates, on the background of de Sitter spacetime. The field is prepared in the Bunch–Davies vacuum state and is constrained to satisfy Robin boundary conditions on the plates. The vacuum energy-momentum tensor is non-diagonal, with the off-diagonal component corresponding to the energy flux along the direction normal to the plates. It is shown that the curvature of the background spacetime decisively influences the behavior of the Casimir forces at separations larger than the curvature radius of de Sitter spacetime. In dependence of the curvature coupling parameter and the mass of the field, two different regimes are realized, which exhibit monotonic or oscillatory behavior of the forces. The decay of the Casimir force at large plate separation is shown to be power-law, with independence of the value of the field mass.

Effective Lagrangian

The effective Lagrangian for the heterotic superstring theory of Gross et al. contains higher-derivative gravitational terms [Formula: see text], n ≥ 2, which become important at large curvatures. This leads to a natural realization of the limiting-curvature hypothesis of Frolov et al., which was formulated to describe the interior of black holes. Assuming a purely geometrical, four-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole, for which all matter fields are zero, this interior consists of two regions: a shell of effective energy-density ρ immediately beyond the event horizon at r+ = 2M, due to the back reaction of the [Formula: see text] on the Schwarzschild metric, extending inward to a transition radius r0 ≈ M⅓, where the shell signature (- + - -) reverts to the exterior Lorentzian form (+ - - -), and an innermost core tending asymptotically to anti-de Sitter space as r → 0. The total mass-energy content of the hole M can be expressed in terms of the effective energy–momentum tensor Sij as the Nordström mass [Formula: see text], since the space–time is static and free of physical singularities. The conjecture that ρ N (r) is positive in the shell, which is necessary for the contribution to M N to be positive, is shown to be true for the term [Formula: see text], due to the unrenormalized [Formula: see text]. The corresponding "potential" energy–momentum tensor calculated in the Schwarzschild background is isotropic in the region r0 ≪ r ≪ r+, where [Formula: see text], while the dominant "kinetic" contribution is [Formula: see text], so that [Formula: see text].

De Sitter Vacua

Abstract Recent progress in understanding de Sitter spacetime in supergravity and string theory has led to the development of a four dimensional supergravity with spontaneously broken supersymmetry allowing for de Sitter vacua, also called de Sitter supergravity. One approach makes use of constrained (nilpotent) superfields, while an alternative one couples supergravity to a locally supersymmetric generalization of the Volkov-Akulov goldstino action. These two approaches have been shown to give rise to the same 4D action. A novel approach to de Sitter vacua in supergravity involves the generalisation of unimodular gravity to supergravity using a super-Stückelberg mechanism. In this paper, we make a connection between this new approach and the previous two which are in the context of nilpotent superfields and the goldstino brane. We show that upon appropriate field redefinitions, the 4D actions match up to the cubic order in the fields. This points at the possible existence of a more general framework to obtain de Sitter spacetimes from high-energy theories.

Simple Scaling

Abstract We study wavefunctions of heavy scalars on de Sitter spacetime and their implications to dS/CFT correspondence. In contrast to light fields in the complementary series, heavy fields in the principal series oscillate outside the cosmological horizon. As a consequence, the quadratic term in the wavefunction does not follow a simple scaling and so it is hard to identify it with a conformal two-point function. In this paper, we demonstrate that it should be interpreted as a two-point function on a cyclic RG flow which is obtained by double-trace deformations of the dual CFT. This is analogous to the situation in nonrelativistic AdS/CFT with a bulk scalar whose mass squared is below the Breitenlohner-Freedman (BF) bound. We also provide a new dS/CFT dictionary relating de Sitter two-point functions and conformal two-point functions in the would-be dual CFT.
