TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied correlators of four protected (half-BPS) operators in strongly coupled supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and showed that these correlators are dual to tree-level supergravity amplitudes on AdS5×S5 for various spherical harmonics on the five-sphere.
Abstract: We study correlators of four protected (half-BPS) operators in strongly coupled supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. These are dual to tree-level supergravity amplitudes on AdS5×S5 for various spherical harmonics on the five-sphere. We use conformal field theory methods, in particular a recently obtained Lorentzian inversion formula, to analytically bootstrap these correlators. The extracted 1/N2 double-trace anomalous dimensions confirm a simple pattern recently conjectured by Aprile, Drummond, Heslop and Paul. We explain this pattern by an unexpected ten-dimensional conformal symmetry which appears to be enjoyed by tree-level supergravity (or a suitable subsector of it). The symmetry combines all spherical harmonics into a single ten-dimensional object, and yields compact expressions for the leading logarithmic part of any half-BPS correlator at each loop order.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an introduction to gauge/gravity duality, focusing on the basics and a variety of ways to generate duals of reduced symmetry, and present the basics of gauge duality.
Abstract: These lectures are an introduction to gauge/gravity duality, presented at TASI 2010. The first three sections present the basics, focusing on $AdS_5 \times S^5$. The last section surveys a variety of ways to generate duals of reduced symmetry.

TL;DR: In this paper, a gauge-invariant formalism of gravitational perturbations of maximally symmetric spacetimes including anti-de Sitter spacetime has been developed and the existence of scalar-type master variables is shown.
Abstract: Gravitational perturbations of anti--de Sitter (AdS) spacetime play important roles in the AdS conformal field theory correspondence and the brane world scenario. In this paper, we develop a gauge-invariant formalism of gravitational perturbations of maximally symmetric spacetimes including anti--de Sitter spacetime. The existence of scalar-type master variables is shown and the corresponding master equations are derived.
