Dynamics of a wavy plane Wilson surface observable from AdS-CFT correspondence

چکیده

Guided by the paper hep-th/0002106 by Polyakov and Rychkov, we compute the second variational derivative of a wavy plane Wilson surface observable, to find that a necessary condition for a proposed surface equation to be satisfied in the large N limit is that we are in the critical dimension D = 6.

Wavy Wilson Line and AdS / CFT

Wilson loops which are small deviations from straight, infinite lines, called wavy lines, are considered in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. A single wavy line and the connected correlation function of a straight and wavy line are considered. It is argued that, to leading order in “waviness”, the functional form of the loop is universal and the coefficient, which is a function of the ...

Wilson Loop and Ds/cft Correspondence

We calculate Wilson loop (quark anti-quark potential) in dS/CFT correspondence. The brane-world model is considered where bulk is two 5d Euclidean de Sitter spaces and boundary (brane) is 4d de Sitter one. Starting from the Nambu-Goto action, the calculation of the effective tension (average energy) is presented. Unlike to the case of supergravity calculation of Wilson loop in AdS/CFT set-up, t...

New inequality for Wilson loops from AdS/CFT

The strong subadditivity is the most important inequality which entanglement entropy satisfies. Based on the AdS/CFT conjecture, entanglement entropy in CFT is equal to the area of the minimal surface in AdS space. It is known that a Wilson loop can also be holographically computed from the minimal surface in AdS space. In this paper, we argue that Wilson loops also satisfy a similar inequality...

Wilson loops in large-N theories

In the AdS/CFT correspondence, correlation functions of conformal fields are related to amplitudes of a quantum theory in AdS [1 – 3] (for a review, see for example [4]). Since the conformal group of the boundary and the isometry group of AdS are identical, correlation functions defined in this way are conformally symmetric. However not all quantum theories in AdS can be related to CFT at the b...

Conformal Anomaly of Submanifold Observables in Ads/cft Correspondence C. Robin Graham and Edward Witten

We analyze the conformal invariance of submanifold observables associated with k-branes in the AdS/CFT correspondence. For odd k, the resulting observables are conformally invariant, and for even k, they transform with a conformal anomaly that is given by a local expression which we analyze in detail for k = 2.
