Recent progress on de Sitter S-matrix

Ian Morrison

University of Cambridge

The de Sitter S-matrix provides a gauge-invariant and field redefinition-invariant window into de Sitter QFTs and may provide a crucial entry in any dS/CFT dictionary. In this talk I will summarize recent progress on developing the S-matrix for theories with gauge fields and perturbative gravity. Nonrenormalization theorems, hints of supersymmetry, and perturbative stability will be discussed.
