dS/CFT Holography including Fermionic Fields
Abstract
We investigate some aspects of holography in de Sitter space, pertaining to the proposal for the dual theory residing on the late-time boundary [arXiv:astro-ph/0210603v5], including a Fermionic field that satisfies the Dirac equation. The modes of the solutions near the boundary are found to possess equal and oscillatory fall-off, similar to the scalar field belonging to the principal series representation of the isometry group of de Sitter space. We evaluate, by suitably adding a boundary term to the Dirac action, the wavefunctional of the Bunch Davies vacuum in path integral formalism in terms of the projections of the field on the eigenspaces of the time-like γ-matrix. We validate our path-integral construction of the wavefunctional by reproducing the two-point function between the field operators in the vacuum state as computed in the canonical formalism. By appropriately identifying the boundary sources in terms of the projected components of the bulk field, we find that a single Dirac field in the bulk corresponds to a pair of primary spinor fields in the boundary theory and show that the resulting wavefunction coefficients satisfy the conformal Ward identities. We check the robustness of our holographic map under the addition of a Yukawa interaction considering the two cases where the scalar field in the interaction term belongs to the complementary series and the principal series representations of the isometry group of de Sitter space respectively.
