JT gravity in de Sitter space and its extensions
摘要
We discuss and extend some aspects pertaining to the canonical quantisation of JT gravity in de Sitter space, including the problem of time and the construction of a Hilbert space. We then extend this discussion to other two dimensional models obtained by changing the dilaton potential and show that the canonical quantisation procedure can be carried out for a large class of such models. Some discussion leading towards a path integral understanding for states, other than the Hartle Hawking state, is also included here, along with comments pertaining to Holography and the entropy of de Sitter space.
