Anti-de Sitter/CFT Correspondence in Three-Dimensional Supergravity
نویسندگان
چکیده
Anti-de Sitter supergravity models are considered in three dimensions. Precise asymptotic conditions involving a chiral projection are given on the Rarita-Schwinger fields. Together with the known boundary conditions on the bosonic fields, these ensure that the asymptotic symmetry algebra is the superconformal algebra. The classical central charge is computed and found to be equal to the one of pure gravity. It is also indicated that the asymptotic degrees of freedom are described by 2D “induced supergravity” and that the boundary conditions “transmute” the non-vanishing components of the WZW supercurrent into the supercharges.

متن کاملWilson 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...
متن کاملMore Superstrings from Supergravity
The four six–dimensional “little string” theories are all described in the infinite momentum frame (IMF) as matrix theories by non–trivial 1+1 dimensional infra–red fixed points. We characterize these fixed points using supergravity. Starting from the matrix theory definition of M5–branes, we derive an associated dual supergravity description of the fixed point theories, arising as the near hor...
متن کاملConformal anomaly from dS / CFT correspondence
In frames of dS/CFT correspondence suggested by Strominger we calculate holographic conformal anomaly for dual euclidean CFT. The holographic renormalization group method is used for this purpose. It is explicitly demonstrated that two-dimensional and four-dimensional conformal anomalies (or corresponding central charges) have the same form as those obtained in AdS/CFT duality.

متن کاملTopological Ward Identity and Anti-de Sitter Space/CFT Correspondence
The dual relationship between the supergravity in the anti-de Sitter(AdS) space and the superconformal field theory is discussed in the simplest form We show that a topological Ward identity holds in the three dimensional Chern-Simons gravity. In this simple case the proposed dual relationship can be understood as the topological Ward identity. Extensions to the supersymmetric theories and high...
