De Sitter Horizons & Holographic Liquids

arXiv:1811.08153 · doi:10.1007/JHEP07(2019)038

Abstract

We explore asymptotically AdS solutions of a particular two-dimensional dilaton-gravity theory. In the deep interior, these solutions flow to the cosmological horizon of dS. We calculate various matter perturbations at the linearised and non-linear level. We consider both Euclidean and Lorentzian perturbations. The results can be used to characterise the features of a putative dual quantum mechanics. The chaotic nature of the de Sitter horizon is assessed through the soft mode action at the AdS boundary, as well as the behaviour of shockwave type solutions.
