We develop the representation of interacting bulk gauge fields and charged scalar matter in AdS in terms of non-local observables in the dual CFT. We work in holographic gauge in the bulk, A_z = 0. The correct statement of micro-causality…
In the framework of bulk reconstruction, we elucidate the relationship between the action of CFT modular Hamiltonians on bulk operators, the possible equation of motion for the bulk operators, and the charge distribution at infinity…
We study a set of CFT operators suitable for reconstructing a charged bulk scalar field $\phi$ in AdS${}_3$ (dual to an operator ${\cal O}$ of dimension $\Delta$ in the CFT) in the presence of a conserved spin-$n$ current in the CFT. One…
Dual AdS/CFT correlators can be computed in two ways: differentiate the bulk partition function with respect to boundary conditions, or extrapolate bulk correlation functions to the boundary. These dictionaries were conjectured to be…
We construct smeared CFT operators which represent a scalar field in AdS interacting with gravity. The guiding principle is micro-causality: scalar fields should commute with themselves at spacelike separation. To O(1/N) we show that a…
We establish a construction of the bulk local operators in AdS by considering CFT at finite energy scale. Without assuming any prior knowledge about the bulk, the normalizable solution to the bulk free field equation automatically appears…
Recently, a method was described for deriving Holographic RG equation in $AdS_{D+1}$ space starting from an Exact RG equation of a $D$-dimensional boundary CFT (Sathiapalan, Sonoda, 2017). The evolution operator corresponding to the Exact…
The correlation function in Ads/CFT are correlation of the operator insertions on the boundary (at CFT) through the complete geometry of bulk. These are represented by Witten diagrams which at tree level doesn't have any quantum…
Within the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence we attempt to formulate the cosmological constant problem in the dual conformal field theory. The fine-tuning of the bulk cosmological constant is related to an apparent fine-tuning in the…
Working in the context of the proposed duality between 3D higher spin gravity and 2D W_N minimal model CFTs, we compute a class of four-point functions in the bulk and on the boundary, and demonstrate precise agreement between them. This is…
In this paper we explore how to describe a bulk moving particle in the dual conformal field theories (CFTs). One aspect of this problem is to construct the dual state of the moving particle. On the other hand one should find the…
Local operators in the bulk of AdS can be represented as smeared operators in the dual CFT. We show how to construct these bulk observables by requiring that the bulk operators commute at spacelike separation. This extends our previous work…
We consider an effective theory of massive scalar fields on a fixed AdS$_{d+1}$ background with a cubic extremal interaction among them. A bulk coupling is called extremal whenever the corresponding conformal dimension of any of the dual…
An important insight from the study of AdS/CFT is that bulk locality can be derived from crossing symmetry of the boundary CFT. In this paper, we take the first steps in extending this statement to de Sitter background by demonstrating how…
We construct an explicit bulk dual in anti-de Sitter space, with couplings of order $1/N$, for the $SU(N)$-singlet sector of QED in $d$ space-time dimensions ($2 < d < 4$) coupled to $N$ scalar fields. We begin from the bulk dual for the…
We give a group-theoretic interpretation of the AdS/CFT correspondence as relation of representation equivalence between representations of the conformal group describing the bulk AdS fields $\phi$ and the coupled boundary fields $\phi_0$…
We develop the representation of free spinor fields in the bulk of Lorentzian anti-de Sitter space in terms of smeared operators in the dual conformal field theory. To do this we expand the bulk field in a complete set of normalizable…
Previous work has established an equality between the geodesic integral of a free bulk field in AdS and the contribution of the conformal descendants of its dual CFT primary operator to the OPE of two other operators inserted at the…
These lecture notes are based on a series of lectures given at the XIII Modave summer school in mathematical physics. We review the construction due to Hamilton, Kabat, Lifschytz and Lowe for reconstructing local bulk operators from CFT…
Perturbative bulk reconstruction in AdS/CFT starts by representing a free bulk field $\phi^{(0)}$ as a smeared operator in the CFT. A series of $1/N$ corrections must be added to $\phi^{(0)}$ to represent an interacting bulk field $\phi$.…
