abstract

The AdS/CFT conjecture relates quantum gravity on Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space to a conformal field theory (CFT) defined on the spacetime boundary. We interpret the CFT in terms of natural analogues of the bulk S-matrix. Our first approach finds the bulk S-matrix as a limit of scattering from an AdS bubble immersed in a space admitting asymptotic states. Next, we show how the periodicity of geodesics obstructs a standard LSZ prescription for scattering within global AdS. To avoid this subtlety we partition global AdS into patches within which CFT correlators reconstruct transition amplitudes of AdS states. Finally, we use the AdS/CFT duality to propose a large N collective field theory that describes local, perturbative supergravity. Failure of locality in quantum gravity should be related to the difference between the collective 1/N expansion and genuine finite N dynamics.

Spinning bulk-to-boundary correlators in the massless theories with Poincar\'e symmetry

hep-th · 2026-06-04 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Bulk-to-boundary correlators for spin-s operators in Poincaré-invariant massless theories are linear superpositions of ISO(2)-fixed tensor structures mapped to non-crossing double-line diagrams that are tensor products of loop diagrams, extrapolating to type Ib multiplets in CCFT generated by Wigner

Minkowski Space holography and Radon transform

hep-th · 2025-09-05 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Relates free scalar in Minkowski space to codimension-two sphere field via Radon transform to dS/EAdS slice and bulk reconstruction, with Mellin modes as generalized hypergeometric functions via Lee-Pomeransky method.
