Holography from Conformal Field Theory
The locality of bulk physics at distances below the AdS length scale is one of the remarkable aspects of AdS/CFT duality, and one of the least tested. It requires that the AdS radius be large compared to the Planck length and the string length. In the CFT this implies a large-N expansion and a gap in the spectum of anomalous dimensions. We conjecture that the implication also runs in the other ...
متن کامل2D Conformal Field Theories and Holography
It is known that the chiral part of any 2d conformal field theory defines a 3d topological quantum field theory: quantum states of this TQFT are the CFT conformal blocks. The main aim of this paper is to show that a similar CFT/TQFT relation exists also for the full CFT. The 3d topological theory that arises is a certain “square” of the chiral TQFT. Such topological theories were studied by Tur...
متن کاملHolography and Defect Conformal Field Theories
We develop both the gravity and field theory sides of the Karch-Randall conjecture that the near-horizon description of a certain D5-D3 brane configuration in string theory, realized as AdS5×S bisected by an AdS4×S “brane”, is dual to N = 4 Super Yang-Mills theory in R coupled to an R3 defect. We propose a complete Lagrangian for the field theory dual, a novel “defect superconformal field theor...
متن کاملOperads and Conformal Field Theory Lecture 1: Conformal Field Theory
Physicists have developed very advanced methods to compute such integrals. For example, the famous Feynman diagram technique allows us to compute the above integral for a rather particular function S(x), a small perturbation of a positive de nite quadratic form in R . Sometimes, elaborate techniques of physicists to compute simple things nd an amazing application to very general things in mathe...
متن کاملAdS3 Gravitational Instantons from Conformal Field Theory
A conformal field theory on the boundary of three-dimensional asymptotic anti-de Sitter spaces which appear as near horizon geometry of D-brane bound states is discussed. It is shown that partition functions of gravitational instantons appear as high and low temperature limits of the partition function of the conformal field theory. The result reproduces phase transition between the anti-de Sit...
