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.

The singularity theorems of general relativity predict that gravitational collapse finally ends up in a spacetime singularity1. The cosmic censorship hypothesis (CCH) states that such a singularity is covered by an event horizon2. Despite much effort, there is no rigorous formulation or proof of the CCH. In view of this, examples that appear to violate the CCH and lead to naked singularities, in which non-spacelike curves can emerge, rather than black holes, are important to shed more light on the issue. We have studied several collapse scenarios which can lead to both situations3. In the case of the Vaidya-de Sitter spacetime4, we have shown that the naked singularities that arise are of the strong curvature type. Both types of singularities can also arise in higher dimensional Vaidya and Tolman-Bondi spacetimes, but black holes are favoured in some sense by the higher dimensions. The charged Vaidya-de Sitter spacetime also exhibits both types of singularities5.

In [R. P. Bernar, L. C. B. Crispino and A. Higuchi, Phys. Rev. D 90 (2014) 024045.] we investigated gravitational perturbations in the background of de Sitter spacetime in arbitrary dimensions. More specifically, we used a gauge-invariant formalism to describe the perturbations inside the cosmological horizon, i.e. in the static patch of de Sitter spacetime. After a gauge-fixed quantization procedure, the two-point function in the Bunch–Davies-like vacuum state was shown to be infrared finite and invariant under time-translation. In this work, we give details of the calculations to obtain the graviton two-point function in 3 + 1 dimensions.

This paper gives a brief review of recent results on higher dimensional black hole solutions. It is shown that the D-dimensional Kerr-NUT-de Sitter spacetime constructed by Chen-Lü-Pope is the only spacetime admitting a rank-2 conformal Killing-Yano tensor with a certain symmetry.

Global topological soliton of the hedgehog ansatz is added to de Sitter spacetime in arbitrary dimensions larger than three, and then thermodynamic law is checked at the cosmological horizon. All geometric and thermodynamic quantities are varied in the presence of a long-range interacting matter distribution with negative pressure, however the entropy-area relation is satisfied in the exact form. Its geometry involves deficit solid angle but maintains a single horizon which allows unique temperature normalization, different from the case of Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime.

We study the phase transition of charged Gauss-Bonnet-de Sitter (GB-dS) black hole. For black holes in de Sitter spacetime, there is not only black hole horizon, but also cosmological horizon. The thermodynamic quantities on both horizons satisfy the first law of the black hole thermodynamics, respectively; moreover, there are additional connections between them. Using the effective temperature approach, we obtained the effective thermodynamic quantities of charged GB-dS black hole. According to Ehrenfest classification, we calculate some response functions and plot their figures, from which one can see that the spacetime undergoes a second-order phase transition at the critical point. It is shown that the critical values of effective temperature and pressure decrease with the increase of the value of GB parameterα.

A generalization of the asymptotic wormhole boundary condition for the case of spacetimes with a cosmological horizon is proposed. In particular, we consider de Sitter spacetime with small cosmological constant. The wave functions selected by this proposal are exponentially damped in WKB approximation when the scale factor is large but still much smaller than the horizon size. In addition, they only include outgoing gravitational modes in the region beyond the horizon. We argue that these wave functions represent quantum wormholes and compute the local effective interactions induced by them in low-energy field theory. These effective interactions differ from those for flat spacetime in terms that explicitly depend on the cosmological constant.

Vacuum energy density and stresses are investigated for a scalar field in de Sitter spacetime with an arbitrary number of toroidally compactified spatial dimensions and in anti-de Sitter spacetime with two parallel branes. On the branes the field obeys the Robin boundary conditions. The behavior of the vacuum expectation values is discussed in various asymptotic regions of the parameters. Applications are given to Randall-Sundrum type braneworlds.
