abstract
We present a theory of general two-point functions and of generalized free fields in d-dimensional de Sitter space-time which closely parallels the corresponding minkowskian theory. The usual spectral condition is now replaced by a certain geodesic spectral condition, equivalent to a precise thermal characterization of the corresponding ``vacuum''states. Our method is based on the geometry of the complex de Sitter space-time and on the introduction of a class of holomorphic functions on this manifold, called perikernels, which reproduce mutatis mutandis the structural properties of the two-point correlation functions of the minkowskian quantum field theory. The theory contains as basic elementary case the linear massive field models in their ``preferred'' representation. The latter are described by the introduction of de Sitter plane waves in their tube domains which lead to a new integral representation of the two-point functions and to a Fourier-Laplace type transformation on the hyperboloid. The Hilbert space structure of these theories is then analysed by using this transformation. In particular we show the Reeh-Schlieder property. For general two-point functions, a substitute to the Wick rotation is defined both in complex space-time and in the complex mass variable, and substantial results concerning the derivation of Kallen-Lehmann type representation are obtained.

A Kontorovich-Lebedev-Fourier space is built for (d+1)-dimensional de Sitter correlators from the Casimir operator of SO(1,d+1), producing rational propagators and Feynman rules that turn tree and loop diagrams into spectral integrals and orthogonality relations.
The authors derive new multisoliton solutions in Anti-de Sitter and single solitons in de Sitter spacetimes using a curvature-deformed sine-Gordon model.
Review of so(1,D) representations for de Sitter space across all D, covering mixed symmetry and fermions, connected to propagating fields.
