We give an update on recent results about the matching between CFT operators and KK states in the AdS/CFT correspondence, and add some new comments on the realization of the baryonic symmetries from the supergravity point of view.
What is the dimension of spacetime? We address this question in the context of the AdS/CFT Correspondence. We give a prescription for computing the number of large bulk dimensions, $D$, from strongly-coupled CFT$_d$ data, where "large"…

We investigate the AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ correspondence for the Euclidean AdS$_3$ space compactified on a solid torus with the CFT field on the regularizing boundary surface in the bulk. Correlation functions corresponding to the bulk theory at…

Conformal techniques are applied to the calculation of integrals on AdS(d+1) space which define correlators of composite operators in the superconformal field theory on the d-dimensional boundary. The 3-point amplitudes for scalar fields of…
In the perturbative AdS-CFT correspondence, the dual field whose source are the prescribed boundary values of a bulk field in the functional integral, and the boundary limit of the quantized bulk field are the same thing. This statement is…
The AdS/CFT equivalence transformation is a field redefinition that relates the Weyl dilaton and AdS brane realizations of broken conformal symmetry. Acting on theories with second order equations of motion, it maps the conformal galileons…
The goal of these notes is to introduce, in a very elementary way, the idea of the anti de-Sitter/Conformal Field Theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence to condensed matter physicists. This theory relates a gravity theory in a (d+1)- dimensional…
We derive a simple relation between the Mellin amplitude for AdS/CFT correlation functions and the bulk S-Matrix in the flat spacetime limit, proving a conjecture of Penedones. As a consequence of the Operator Product Expansion, the Mellin…
Maldacena has shown that the wavefunction of the universe in de Sitter space can be viewed as the partition function of a conformal field theory. In this paper, we investigate this approach to the dS/CFT correspondence in further detail. We…
This work explores the celebrated AdS/CFT correspondence in the regime of high energy scattering in Anti--de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. In particular, we develop the eikonal approximation to high energy scattering in AdS and explore its…
We introduce the AdS/CFT correspondence as a natural extension of QFT in a fixed AdS background. We start by reviewing some general concepts of CFT, including the embedding space formalism. We then consider QFT in a fixed AdS background and…
We continue the study of the nocommutative $AdS_2 / CFT_1$ correspondence. We extend our previous results obtained for a free massless scalar field to the case of a massive scalar field. Both the free and interacting cases are considered.…
In this paper we shed new light on the AdS/CFT duality by interpreting the CFT as the Fourier space of AdS. We make use of well known integral geometry techniques to derive the Fourier transformation of a function defined on the AdS…
Holographic CFTs admit a dual emergent description in terms of semiclassical general relativity minimally coupled to matter fields. While the gravitational interactions are required to be suppressed by the Planck scale, the matter sector is…
