A No-Go Theorem for a Strict dS to SM Boundary Duality in Four Dimensions
Abstract
I formulate a precise obstruction to identifying the four-dimensional Standard Model with the holographic dual of a four-dimensional de Sitter (dS$_4$) universe. Under mild and physically motivated assumptions showing no such duality exists. This result delineates a sharp sense in which a dS/SM boundary correspondence is excluded in our universe, while leaving consistent non-boundary frameworks open.
