The O ( N ) model on a squashed S 3 and the Klebanov - Polyakov correspondence

چکیده

We solve the O(N) vector model at large N on a squashed three-sphere with a conformal mass term. Using the Klebanov-Polyakov version of the AdS4/CFT3 correspondence we match various aspects of the strongly coupled theory with the physics of the bulk AdS Taub-NUT and AdS Taub-Bolt geometries. Remarkably, we find that the field theory reproduces the behaviour of the bulk free energy as a function of the squashing parameter. The O(N) model is realised in a symmetric phase for all finite values of the coupling and squashing parameter, including when the boundary scalar curvature is negative.

The Squashed, Stretched, and Warped Gets Perturbed

We use direct Kaluza-Klein reduction to calculate the spectrum of spin-2 modes around a warped product of AdS4 and a certain squashed and stretched 7-sphere. The modes turn out to be polynomials in the four complex variables parameterizing the sphere, and their complex conjugates. The background, which possesses U(1)R×SU(3) symmetry, has been conjectured to be dual to a U(N) × U(N) N = 2 superc...

Gauge/string correspondence in curved space

We discuss Gubser-Klebanov-Polyakov proposal for the gauge/string theory correspondence for gauge theories in curved space. Specifically, we consider KlebanovTseytlin cascading gauge theory compactified on S. We explain regime when this gauge theory is a small deformation of the superconformal N = 1 gauge theory on the world volume of regular D3-branes at the tip of the conifold. We study close...

Holography in 4D (Super) Higher Spin Theories and a Test via Cubic Scalar Couplings

The correspondences proposed previously between higher spin gauge theories and free singleton field theories were recently extended into a more complete picture by Klebanov and Polyakov in the case of the minimal bosonic theory inD = 4 to include the strongly coupled fixed point of the 3d O(N) vector model. Here we propose an N = 1 supersymmetric version of this picture. We also elaborate on th...

AdS dual of the critical O ( N ) sigma model for any dimension 2 < d < 4

We evaluate the 4-point function of the auxiliary field in the critical O(N) sigma model at O(1/N) and show that it describes the exchange of tensor currents of arbitrary even rank l > 0. These are dual to tensor gauge fields of the same rank in the AdS theory, which supports the recent hypothesis of Klebanov and Polyakov. Their couplings to two auxiliary fields are also derived.
