Supersymmetric dS/CFT

We put forward new explicit realisations of dS/CFT that relate ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric Euclidean vector models with reversed spin-statistics in three dimensions to specific supersymmetric Vasiliev theories in four-dimensional de Sitter space. The partition function of the free supersymmetric vector model deformed by a range of low spin deformations that preserve supersymmetry appears to specify a well-defined wave function with asymptotic de Sitter boundary conditions in the bulk. In particular we find the wave function is globally peaked at undeformed de Sitter space, with a low amplitude for strong deformations. This suggests that supersymmetric de Sitter space is stable in higher-spin gravity and in particular free from ghosts. We speculate this is a limiting case of the de Sitter realizations in exotic string theories.Comment: V2: references and comments added, typos corrected, version published in JHEP; 27 pages, 3 figures, 1 tabl

Percentage of mitochondrial transcripts plotted against total number of detected transcripts for mouse Ba/F3 cells (a), human cell lines (b), mouse cell lines (c), and pancreatic islets (d). Dashed lines indicate the minimum number of detected transcripts required as a cell QC filter for each data set. (PDF 409 kb

Heatmaps illustrating the total number of detected transcripts for each well selected for downstream processing. Data are for three microchips, each with 5184 wells arranged in a 72 × 72 square layout. Microchips 72,618 and 72,598 were used for profiling human and mouse cell lines (names of cell lines indicated in the plot). Microchip 72,625 was used for profiling pancreatic islets. For microchips with multiple dispensed samples, the dispense area for each sample is indicated. (PDF 93 kb
