abstract

We describe progress towards constructing a quantum theory of de Sitter space in four dimensions. In particular we indicate how both particle states and Schwarzschild de Sitter black holes can arise as excitations in a theory of a finite number of fermionic oscillators. The results about particle states depend on a conjecture about algebras of Grassmann variables, which we state, but do not prove.

Holograms and Standard Models

hep-th · 2026-07-06 · conditional · novelty 7.0

DSSYK∞ at infinite temperature duals in the flat-space limit to the 't Hooft model, and holographic entropy at TB=∞ forbids quantum corrections to the vacuum energy.

An Algebra of Observables for de Sitter Space

hep-th · 2022-06-22 · accept · novelty 7.0

Defines a Type II₁ algebra of gravitationally dressed observables in de Sitter static patch whose entropy matches generalized entropy up to a state-independent additive constant.

The yes boundaries wavefunctions of the universe

hep-th · 2026-04-11 · conditional · novelty 6.5

A constrained product of two dressed one-sided dS quantum systems yields a holographic dual whose top-band TFD and lower tall states capture the future wedge and overlapping causal wedges.

Holographic complexity of de-Sitter black holes

hep-th · 2026-06-02 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

In SdS black hole holography, CV and CV2.0 complexities grow linearly while CA growth vanishes due to finite action, with matching rates between static patch and dS/CFT schemes.

Toward a Phenomenologically Acceptable Quantum Cyclic Universe

gr-qc · 2026-05-28 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

A finite-dimensional quantum model with commensurable energy eigenvalues and minimum-entropy initial condition yields exact periodicity and a distinguished entropy minimum that may represent the Big Bang while suppressing Boltzmann Brains.
