Constraining conformal field theories with a higher spin symmetry

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the constraints imposed by the existence of a single higher spin conserved current on a three-dimensional conformal field theory and showed that the correlation functions of the stress tensor and the conserved currents are equal to those of a free field theory.

Nonlinear W ∞ as asymptotic symmetry of three-dimensional higher spin AdS gravity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the asymptotic symmetry algebra of (2+1)-dimensional higher spin, anti-de Sitter gravity, and showed that it is a nonlinearly realized W ∞ algebra with classical central charges.

Nonlinear W(infinity) Algebra as Asymptotic Symmetry of Three-Dimensional Higher Spin Anti-de Sitter Gravity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the asymptotic symmetry algebra of (2+1)-dimensional higher spin, anti-de Sitter gravity, and showed that it is a nonlinearly deformed W(infinity) algebra with classical central charges.

How higher-spin gravity surpasses the spin-two barrier

TL;DR: In this paper, the key mechanisms of higher-spin extensions of ordinary gravities in four dimensions and higher are explained, and an overview of various no-go theorems for low-energy scattering of massless particles in flat spacetime is given.

The Large N limit of superconformal field theories and supergravity

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the large-N limits of certain conformal field theories in various dimensions include in their Hilbert space a sector describing supergravityon the product of anti-de Sitter spacetimes, spheres, and other compact manifolds.

Anti De Sitter Space And Holography

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Kaluza-Klein modes of Type IIB supergravity on $AdS_5\times {\bf S}^5$ match with the chiral operators of the super Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions.

Gauge Theory Correlators from Non-Critical String Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a boundary of the anti-deSitter space analogous to a cut-off on the Liouville coordinate of the two-dimensional string theory is introduced to obtain certain Green's functions in 3+1-dimensional N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with a large number of colors via non-critical string theory.

Anti de sitter space and holography

TL;DR: In this article, a correspondence between conformal field theory observables and those of supergravity was proposed, where correlation functions in conformal fields are given by the dependence of the supergravity action on the asymptotic behavior at infinity.

On Unitary Representations of the Inhomogeneous Lorentz Group

TL;DR: The superposition principle of the wave function is defined in this article, which is the fundamental principle of quantum mechanics that the system of states forms a linear manifold, in which a unitary scalar product is defined.
