abstract

We consider the most general three point function for gravitational waves produced during a period of exactly de Sitter expansion. The de Sitter isometries constrain the possible shapes to only three: two preserving parity and one violating parity. These isometries imply that these correlation functions should be conformal invariant. One of the shapes is produced by the ordinary gravity action. The other shape is produced by a higher derivative correction and could be as large as the gravity contribution. The parity violating shape does not contribute to the bispectrum [1106.3228, 1108.0175], even though it is present in the wavefunction. We also introduce a spinor helicity formalism to describe de Sitter gravitational waves with circular polarization. These results also apply to correlation functions in Anti-de Sitter space. They also describe the general form of stress tensor correlation functions, in momentum space, in a three dimensional conformal field theory. Here all three shapes can arise, including the parity violating one.

Kontorovich-Lebedev-Fourier Space for de Sitter Correlators

hep-th · 2026-04-16 · unverdicted · novelty 8.0

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.

Medicine show: A Calogero model with principal series states

hep-th · 2025-07-23 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

A deformed Calogero model accommodates unitary principal series states of sl(2,R) via operator domain changes, preserving unitarity and invariance while altering integrability, with solutions for N=2 and 3.

Amplitudes in self-dual (higher-spin) theories

hep-th · 2026-04-27 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

All self-dual theories with or without higher-spin fields possess nontrivial tree-level amplitudes in Kleinian or complex Minkowski kinematics, completing the celestial analogue of the higher-spin duality.

A Compact Story of Positivity in de Sitter

3d QFT IR divergences as UV divergences in 4d Holographic Cosmology

hep-th · 2026-05-15 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

In a 3d toy model for holographic cosmology, a mass term preserving generalized conformal structure permits 2-loop computations that indicate possible IR finiteness beyond perturbation theory, corresponding to UV finiteness without singularities in the 4d dual.

An Alternative Viewpoint on Kinematic Flow from Tubing Splitting

hep-th · 2026-05-18 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

Reversing the direction of tubing evolution yields splitting rules that reproduce the kinematic flow differential equations at tree level and suggest time emerges from kinematic space in conformally coupled scalar models and tr phi^3 theory.
