The correspondences between logarithmic operators in the CFTs on the boundary of AdS_3 and on the world-sheet and dipole fields in the bulk are studied using the free field formulation of the SL(2,C)/SU(2) WZNW model. We find that…

We study the correlation functions of a conformally coupled $\phi^4$-interacting theory in AdS$_3$ and its dual CFT$_2$. The one-loop diagram is not expressible in terms of known transcendental functions, but is shown to be expressible as…

Correlators of local operators inserted on a straight Wilson loop in a conformal gauge theory have the structure of a one-dimensional "defect" CFT. As was shown in arXiv:1706.00756, in the case of supersymmetric Wilson-Maldacena loop in…

There has been recent progress on computing real-time equilibrium 3-point functions in finite-temperature strongly-coupled N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM). In this paper, we show an example of how to carry out a similar analysis for a 4-point…
