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_…
