The Hilbert Space of Quantum Gravity and Holography of Information in de Sitter space

We study solutions of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in a closed Universe with a positive cosmological constant in the limit where the volume becomes asymptotically large, and use it to outline the Hilbert space. We also attempt to understand whether one can determine the state given access to high point correlators in a small region. This is a work in progress.
