Scientific paper

A free scalar field propagating in de Sitter space has a one parameter family
of invariant states called the alpha-vacua. In an interacting theory, all
except a unique state, the Bunch-Davies vacuum, produce non-renormalizable
divergences. This talk provides a brief introduction to the origin and the form
of these divergences.
