We consider the covariant graviton propagator in de Sitter spacetime in a gauge with two parameters, alpha and beta, in the Euclidean approach. We give an explicit form of the propagator with a particular choice of beta but with arbitrary value of alpha. We confirm that two-point functions of local gauge-invariant quantities do not increase as the separation of the two points becomes large.

  1. Out-of-time-ordered Correlators in de Sitter Revisited

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    The de Sitter OTOC grows at the maximal Lyapunov rate 2π/β at tree level and at twice that rate in a massive-graviton-regulated double-scaling limit, with the growth traced to large diffeomorphisms in the graviton propagator.

  2. A remarkably simple covariant graviton propagator in Anti-de Sitter spacetime

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0

    A special gauge choice (β=1, α=4(d+2)/d) yields a simple graviton propagator in (A)dS satisfying ∇^μ μ ∇^ν μ G_{μν,α'β'} = 0.
