Holograms and Standard Models

Shoichiro Miyashita, Yasuhiro Sekino, Leonard Susskind

Despite riddles, mysteries, and enigmas the theory of elementary particles has not changed for 50 years. We argue that the current paradigm -- Wilsonian quantum field theory -- is…

DSSYK at Infinite Temperature: The Flat-Space Limit and the 't Hooft Model

Shoichiro Miyashita, Yasuhiro Sekino, Leonard Susskind

In the limit of infinite radius de Sitter space becomes locally flat and the static patch tends to Rindler space. A holographic description of the static patch must result in a hol…

Double-Scaled SYK, QCD, and the Flat Space Limit of de Sitter Space

Yasuhiro Sekino, Leonard Susskind

A surprising connection exists between double-scaled SYK at infinite temperature, and large N QCD. The large N expansions of the two theories have the same form; the 't Hooft limit…

New Modes for Vector Bosons in the Static Patch

Adel A. Rahman, Leonard Susskind

We consider a massive vector Boson in a static patch of -dimensional de Sitter space (dS). We argue that this field is controlled by an effective physical (squared) mass $μ_…

-Chords, Wee-Chords, and de Sitter Space

Adel A. Rahman, Leonard Susskind

One of us (L.S.) and H. Verlinde independently conjectured a holographic duality between the double-scaled SYK model at infinite temperature and dimensionally reduced -dimen…

Infinite Temperature is Not So Infinite: The Many Temperatures of de Sitter Space

Adel A. Rahman, Leonard Susskind

Several distinct concepts of temperature appear in the holographic description of de Sitter space. Conflating these has led to confusion and inconsistent claims. The double-scaled…

Comments on a Paper by Narovlansky and Verlinde

Adel A Rahman, Leonard Susskind

The double-scaled infinite temperature limit of the SYK model has been conjectured by Rahman and Susskind (RS) [1, 2, 3, 4], and independently by Verlinde [5] to be dual to a certa…
