We use the tensor network living on the Bruhat-Tits tree to give a concrete realization of the recently proposed $p$-adic AdS/CFT correspondence (a holographic duality based on the $p$-adic number field $\mathbb{Q}_p$). Instead of assuming…
The $p$-adic AdS/CFT is a holographic duality based on the $p$-adic number field $\mathbb{Q}_p$. For a $p$-adic CFT living on $\mathbb{Q}_p$ and with complex-valued fields, the bulk theory is defined on the Bruhat-Tits tree, which can be…
In this summary of my talk at Strings 2016, I explain how classical dynamics on an infinite tree graph can be dual to a conformal field theory defined over the $p$-adic numbers. An informal introduction to $p$-adic numbers is followed by a…
The p-adic AdS/CFT correspondence relates a CFT living on the p-adic numbers to a system living on the Bruhat-Tits tree. Modifying our earlier proposal for a tensor network realization of p-adic AdS/CFT, we prove that the path integral of a…
With the help of Wick rotation over $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$, the $p$-adic version of Euclidean $\textrm{dS}_2$ space(noted as $p\textrm{dS}_2$) is obtained based on $p\textrm{AdS}_2$($p$-adic version of Euclidean $\textrm{AdS}_2$…
Geodesic bulk diagrams were recently shown to be the geometric objects which compute global conformal blocks. We show that this duality continues to hold in $p$-adic AdS/CFT, where the bulk is replaced by the Bruhat-Tits tree, an infinite…
We study the holographic dual of the simplest notion of spin in a $p$-adic field theory, namely Green's functions which involve non-trivial sign characters over the $p$-adic numbers. In order to recover these sign characters from bulk…
This paper studies AdS/CFT in its $p$-adic version (at the ``finite place") in the setting where the bulk geometry is made up of the Tate curve, a discrete quotient of the Bruhat-Tits tree. Generalizing a classic result due to Zabrodin, the…
One of the many remarkable properties of conformal field theory in two dimensions is its connection to algebraic geometry. Since every compact Riemann surface is a projective algebraic curve, many constructions of interest in physics (which…
We obtain a subgroup of the isometry group of $p$AdS (a $p$-adic version of AdS alternative to the Bruhat-Tits tree). We propose a candidate for the scalar bulk action and equation of motion on $p$AdS, and work out analytical expressions of…
We holographically calculate the partition functions of certain types of isotropic sectors of the CFTs dual to Bruhat-Tits trees and $p$-adic BTZ black holes. Along the way, we propose new spectral decompositions of the Laplacian operator…
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…
In this sequel to [1], we take up a second approach in bending the Bruhat-Tits tree. Inspired by the BTZ black hole connection, we demonstrate that one can transplant it to the Bruhat-Tits tree, at the cost of defining a novel "exponential…
It is a long-standing conjecture that any CFT with a large central charge and a large gap $\Delta_{\text{gap}}$ in the spectrum of higher-spin single-trace operators must be dual to a local effective field theory in AdS. We prove a sharp…
In the first part of this paper we provide a short introduction to the AdS/CFT correspondence and to holographic renormalization. We discuss how QFT correlation functions, Ward identities and anomalies are encoded in the bulk geometry. In…
The locality of bulk physics at distances below the AdS length is one of the remarkable aspects of AdS/CFT duality, and one of the least tested. It requires that the AdS radius be large compared to the Planck length and the string length.…
We determine the relationship between $\mathbb{C}_p^\times \times \mathbb{C}_p$ and a Berkovich space via an equivalence relation obtained by coarse-graining. This process also establishes a correspondence between $p$-adic fields and…
The dS/CFT correspondence differs from its AdS/CFT counterpart in some ways, yet is strikingly similar to it in many others. For example, both involve CFTs defined on connected spaces (despite the fact that the conformal boundary of…
In this paper, we propose a $p$-adic analog of Mellin amplitudes for scalar operators, and present the computation of the general contact amplitude as well as arbitrary-point tree-level amplitudes for bulk diagrams involving up to three…
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…
