An S-matrix analog is defined for anti-de Sitter space by constructing ``in'' and ``out'' states that asymptote to the timelike boundary. A derivation parallel to that of the LSZ formula shows that this ``boundary S-matrix'' is given directly by correlation functions in the boundary conformal theory. This provides a key entry in the AdS to CFT dictionary.

  1. Differential Representation for Carrollian Correlators

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Scalar Carrollian correlators admit a differential representation in which exchange diagrams are obtained from contact diagrams by commuting translation operators, matching the modified Mellin transform of flat-space ...

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    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 product...

  3. Flat limit of AdS/CFT from AdS geodesics: scattering amplitudes and antipodal matching of Li\'enard-Wiechert fields

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Flat-space S-matrix elements and Liénard-Wiechert antipodal matching are shown to arise from AdS geodesics that hit the AdS conformal boundary at specific global times.

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.5 of 10

    The Coulombic Liénard–Wiechert field in AdS and flat space is obtained by recentering the static Coulomb seed on the source geodesic, and antipodal matching emerges as the flat-space limit of an exact bulk antipodal c...

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Constructs bulk scalar field representations in Lorentzian AdS4 from boundary primaries via time-ordered propagators and derives their flat-space limits to plane-wave or Carrollian bases.

  6. Constraining bulk-to-boundary correlators under Poincar\'e symmetry

    hep-th 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Poincaré symmetry plus null-infinity fall-off conditions force scalar bulk-to-boundary correlators to 1/(u+n·x)^Δ and fermionic ones to a sum of 1/(u+n·x)^Δ and /n/(u+n·x)^(Δ+1) branches.

    hep-th 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 1.0 of 10

    A review summarizing Carrollian symmetries, CCFT constructions, and applications in AFS holography, Carroll hydrodynamics, and condensed matter phenomena such as fractons and flat bands.
