We construct the gauge field and graviton propagators in Euclidean AdS(d+1) space-time by two different methods. In the first method the gauge invariant Maxwell or linearized Ricci operator is applied directly to bitensor ansatze for the propagators which reflect their gauge structure. This leads to a rapid determination of the physical part of the propagators in terms of elementary functions. The second method is a more traditional approach using covariant gauge fixing which leads to a solution for both physical and gauge parts of the propagators. The gauge invariant parts agree in both methods.

  1. Is there ghost and tachyon free bounce in UV complete gravity theory?

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Ghost- and tachyon-free bounces in AID gravity require a negative cosmological constant; known positive-Λ solutions inevitably contain ghost radiation.

  2. Chern-Simons propagators in AdS$_3$

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 5.0

    New parity-odd AdS3 spin-1 harmonics and the Chern-Simons operator relating them to parity-even ones yield explicit spectral and split representations for abelian Chern-Simons propagators.

    hep-th 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Derives photon bulk-to-bulk propagators in AdS in multiple gauges by tensor decomposition and form-factor solution, recovering prior results and adding new expressions with improved IR behavior in Fried-Yennie gauge.
