Stress Tensor Deformations in dS/CFT: Mixed Boundary Conditions, Spectrum Flow and Pseudo Entropy

We formulate a semiclassical stress tensor deformation dictionary in the context of the dS/CFT correspondence. Using the metric-flow formulation, we propose that stress tensor deformations of the putative boundary theory are encoded holographically as mixed boundary conditions for the bulk metric at future infinity. The coupled flow equations determine the deformed boundary metric and stress tensor, thereby specifying the source–response relation of the deformed boundary theory. We test the proposal in Kerr-dS${}_3$/CFT${}_2$, where the conserved charges constructed from the holographic boundary stress tensor agree exactly with the boundary spectrum obtained from the field-theoretic flow equation, providing a nontrivial consistency check of the dictionary. As an application, we compute the holographic pseudo entropy of boundary intervals from complexified geodesic saddles in the deformed Kerr-dS${}_3$ geometry, and present explicit results for the $T\bar{T}$ and root-$T\bar{T}$ deformations.
