Abstract

We construct the rank-nn finite temperature logarithmic conformal field theory (LCFT) starting from the nn-coupled scalar field theory in the BTZ black hole background. Its zero temperature limit reduces to a rank-nn LCFT in the AdS3_3 background whose gravity dual is a polycritical gravity. We compute all two-point functions of a rank-nn finite temperature LCFT. Using the retarded Green's functions on the boundary, we obtain quasinormal modes of scalar AnA_n which satisfies the 2n2n-th order linearized equation. Furthermore, the absorption cross section of AnA_n indicates a feature of lnn1[ω]\ln^{n-1}[\omega \ell]-correction to the Klein-Gordon mode.
