Antipodally symmetric gauge fields and higher-spin gravity in de Sitter space
read the original abstract
We study gauge fields of arbitrary spin in de Sitter space. These include Yang-Mills fields and gravitons, as well as the higher-spin fields of Vasiliev theory. We focus on antipodally symmetric solutions to the field equations, i.e. ones that live on "elliptic" de Sitter space dS_4/Z_2. For free fields, we find spanning sets of such solutions, including boundary-to-bulk propagators. We find that free solutions on dS_4/Z_2 can only have one of the two types of boundary data at infinity, meaning that the boundary 2-point functions vanish. In Vasiliev theory, this property persists order by order in the interaction, i.e. the boundary n-point functions in dS_4/Z_2 all vanish. This implies that a higher-spin dS/CFT based on the Lorentzian dS_4/Z_2 action is empty. For more general interacting theories, such as ordinary gravity and Yang-Mills, we can use the free-field result to define a well-posed perturbative initial value problem in dS_4/Z_2.

A discrete series gauge field at the late-time boundary of $dS_4$
Both Δ=1 and Δ=2 late-time Maxwell operators on planar dS4 furnish the photon unitary discrete series of SO(4,1), which splits into opposite-helicity summands via self-dual field-strength sectors.
