چکیده

An AdS4 brane embedded in AdS5 exhibits the novel feature that a fourdimensional graviton is localized near the brane, but the majority of the infinite bulk away from the brane where the warp factor diverges does not see four-dimensional gravity. A naive application of the holographic principle from the point of view of the four-dimensional observer would lead to a paradox; a global holographic mapping would require infinite entropy density. In this paper, we show that this paradox is resolved by the proper covariant formulation of the holographic principle. This is the first explicit example of a time-independent metric for which the spacelike formulation of the holographic principle is manifestly inadequate. Further confirmation of the correctness of this approach is that light-rays leaving the brane intersect at the location where we expect four-dimensional gravity to no longer dominate. We also present a simple method of locating CFT excitations dual to a particle in the bulk. We find that the holographic image on the brane moves off to infinity precisely when the particle exits the brane’s holographic domain. Our analysis yields an improved understanding of the physics of the AdS4/AdS5 model.

Super algebra and Harmonic Oscillator in Anti de Sitter space

The harmonic oscillator in anti de Sitter space(AdS) is discussed. We consider the harmonic oscillator potential and then time independent Schrodinger equation in AdS space. Then we apply the supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics approach to solve our differential equation. In this paper we have solved Schrodinger equation for harmonic oscillator in AdS spacetime by supersymmetry approach. The shape...

The Holographic Bound in Anti - de Sitter Space

The correspondence between string theory in Anti-de Sitter space and super Yang Mills theory is an example of the Holographic principle according to which a quantum theory with gravity must be describable by a boundary theory. However, arguments given so far are incomplete because, while the bulk theory has been related to a boundary theory, the holo-graphic bound saying that the boundary theor...

Quantum Fields in Anti-de Sitter Space and the Maldacena Conjecture

We review the relation between the Maldacena conjecture, also known as AdS=CFT correspondence, and the so-called holographic principle that seems to be an essential ingredient for a quantum gravity theory. We also illustrate the idea of holography by showing that the curvature of the anti-de Sitter space reduces the number of degrees of freedom making it possible to nd a mapping between a quant...

Conformal 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.
