The quantum states or Hilbert spaces for the quantum field theory in de Sitter space-time are studied on ambient space formalism. In this formalism, the quantum states are only depended $(1)$ on the topological character of the de Sitter space-time, {\it i.e.} $\R \times S^3$, and $(2)$ on the homogeneous spaces which are used for construction of the unitary irreducible representation of de Sitter group. A compact homogeneous space is chosen in this paper. The unique feature of this homogeneous space is that its total number of quantum states, ${\cal N}$, is finite although the Hilbert space has infinite dimensions. It is shown that ${\cal N}$ is a continuous function of the Hubble constant $H$ and the eigenvalue of the Casimir operators of de Sitter group. The entropy of the quantum fields on this Hilbert space have been calculated which is finite and invariant for all inertial observers on the de Sitter hyperboloid.

The paper
Original abstract
The quantum states or Hilbert spaces for the quantum field theory in de Sitter space-time are studied on ambient space formalism. In this formalism, the quantum states are only depended $(1)$ on the topological character of the de Sitter space-time, {\it i.e.} $\R \times S^3$, and $(2)$ on the homogeneous spaces which are used for construction of the unitary irreducible representation of de Sitter group. A compact homogeneous space is chosen in this paper. The unique feature of this homogeneous space is that its total number of quantum states, ${\cal N}$, is finite although the Hilbert space has infinite dimensions. It is shown that ${\cal N}$ is a continuous function of the Hubble constant $H$ and the eigenvalue of the Casimir operators of de Sitter group. The entropy of the quantum fields on this Hilbert space have been calculated which is finite and invariant for all inertial observers on the de Sitter hyperboloid.

The annihilation operator $a(ξ,ν)$ is a homogeneous function with degree $-3/2+iν$ a̱(ζξ_T,ν)=ζ^-3/2+iνa(ξ_T,ν).Here $T$ stands for an orbital basis of $C^+$. $dμ_T(ξ)$ is an invariant measure defined by [equation] where $i_Ξw_C^+$ denotes the $3$-form on $C^+$ obtained from the contraction of the vector field $Ξ$ with the volume form [equation] Bros et al. have presented two orbital basis [ref] ; the hyperbolic-type sub-manifold $T_4=T_4^+ ∪T_4^-$ defined by Ṯ^±_4={ ξ∈C^+; ξ^4=±m_H},which is invariant under $SO(1,3)$ group, and the spherical-type submanifold $T_0$ defined by Ṯ_0={ ξ∈C^+; ξ^0=m_H>0, ξ⃗.ξ⃗+ (ξ^4)^2= m_H^2},which is invariant under $SO(4)$ group.

Gibbons and Hawking have suggested to use the following relation [ref] : ḏ(-E)=TdS,instead of the equation ([ref]), and then we obtain: E̱=μ/π arctan( H/μ)=μ/π arctan( 2πT/μ).In the null curvature limit we have $(H=0=T)$, E̱=μ/π ∑_n^∞(-1)^n/2n+1( 2πT/μ)^2n+1=2T-μ/3( 2πT/μ)^3+... .In this limit, we obtain $E=0$, which is a logical result!
