Abstract

We discuss the spectrum of states of IIB supergravity on AdS5×S5AdS_5\times S^5 in a manifest SU(2,2/4)SU(2,2/4) invariant setting. The boundary fields are described in terms of N=4 superconformal Yang-Mills theory and the proposed correspondence between supergravity in AdS5AdS_5 and superconformal invariant singleton theory at the boundary is formulated in an N=4 superfield covariant language.
