A Paradox and its Resolution Illustrate Principles of de Sitter Holography
Leonard Susskind
Semiclassical gravity and the holographic description of the static patch of de Sitter space appear to disagree about properties of correlation functions. Certain holographic corre…
De Sitter Space has no Chords. Almost Everything is Confined
Leonard Susskind
This paper describes a phenomenon in which all but a tiny fraction of the fundamental holographic degrees of the SYK theory are confined (as in quark confinement) in the double-sca…
De Sitter Space, Double-Scaled SYK, and the Separation of Scales in the Semiclassical Limit
Leonard Susskind
In the semiclassical limit of de Sitter gravity a separation of scales takes place that divides the theory into a "cosmic" sector and a "microscopic" sector. A similar separation t…
Infinite Temperature's Not So Hot
Henry Lin, Leonard Susskind
It has been argued that the entanglement spectrum of a static patch of de Sitter space must be flat, or what is equivalent, the temperature parameter in the Boltzmann distribution…
Scrambling in Double-Scaled SYK and De Sitter Space
Leonard Susskind
I want to call attention to a simple previously noted fact about the double-scaled version of the SYK model which suggests that it may be holographically dual to de Sitter space.
Entanglement in De Sitter Space
Edgar Shaghoulian, Leonard Susskind
This paper expands on two recent proposals, \cite{Susskind:2021dfc}\cite{Susskind:2021esx} and \cite{Shaghoulian:2021cef}, for generalizing the Ryu-Takayanagi and Hubeny-Rangamani-…
