Boundary conditions and field quantization in AdS
While studying the AdS/CFT correspondence, one encounters very early the example of a scalar field in AdS. The general solution to the Klein-Gordon equation in the limit $z\rightarrow 0$ may be ...

How is every D-brane dual to 2 others?
For instance, A D3 brane is T dual to both a D2 and D4. I understand the idea that Type A and B theories are T dual to one another, but I don't understand how you get 2 different dual descriptions ...

Boundary conditions for bulk partition function in AdS/CFT
In AdS/CFT, we are told that the bulk and boundary functions are equal:
$$ \tag{1}Z_{bulk}[J]= Z_{CFT}[J], $$
where on the left hand side of the equality, $J$ is interpreted as a boundary condition at ...

How to apply the boundary condition in the derivation of the 2-point function in MAGOO?
In the famous AdS/CFT review, in section 3.3.1 the authors give the two-point function of the operator $\mathcal{O}$ for which $\phi_0$ is a source, we write
$$
\langle\mathcal{O}(p)\mathcal{O}(q)\...

Brown-Henneaux Boundary Conditions
I am trying to reproduce the Brown-Henneaux boundary conditions stated in this paper (http://srv2.fis.puc.cl/~mbanados/Cursos/TopicosRelatividadAvanzada/BrownHenneaux.pdf).
The paper constructs a set ...

Would Bekenstein bound disappear in some holographic models?
In Holographic principle models there's a limit to the information that the system can store known as the "Bekenstein bound".
In physics, the Bekenstein bound is an upper limit on the entropy S, or ...

Boundary conditions due to local and global diffeomorphisms
Consider the following extract from page 2 of this paper.
$AdS_3$ is the $SL(2, \mathbb{R})$ group manifold and accordingly has an
$SL(2, \mathbb{R})_{L} \times SL(2, \mathbb{R})_{R}$ isometry ...

Shooting Method for coefficient matching in holography
Usually when one is attempting to solve the equations of motion of a bulk field in the AdS/CFT framework the main goal is to understand if a corresponding boundary operator aqcuires a VEV (commonly ...

Why are holomorphic boundary CFT2 primary operators massless in the AdS3 bulk?
I saw a claim in this paper that holomorphic boundary CFT$_2$ primary operators correspond to massless states in the AdS$_3$ bulk. Specifically,
As always, we simplify the situation by assuming the ...

Asymptotic symmetry algebra
So after a lot of research, and tons and tons of papers that I've went through, I finally have some idea how to solve the equations that will give me candidates for the asymptotic symmetry group for ...

Getting diffeomorphisms from boundary conditions in $AdS_3$
As usual I'm asking a question about boundary conditions for AdS${}_3$, based on the thesis by Porfyriadis.
He is solving equations $\mathcal{L}_\xi g_{\mu\nu}$ for AdS${}_3$ metric, with a given ...

Finding superpotentials and central charges in $AdS_3$
In text "Covariant theory of asymptotic symmetries, conservation laws and central charges" is given an example of finding central charges and superpotential (among other things).
I am interested in $...

Help with the understanding of boundary conditions on $AdS_3$
So I am trying to reproduce results in this article, precisely the 3rd chapter 'Virasoro algebra for AdS$_3$'. I have the metric in this form:
$$ds^2=-\left(1+\frac{r^2}{l^2}\right)dt^2+\left(1+\frac{...

Diffeomorphisms and boundary conditions
I am trying to find out how did the authors in this paper (arXiv:0809.4266) found out the general form of the diffeomorphism which preserve the boundary conditions in the same paper.
I found this ...

Boundary conditions for fields in Kerr/CFT
I am reading a paper by Guica et al. on Kerr/CFT correspondence (arXiv:0809.4266) and I'm not sure if I got this. They choose the boundary conditions, like a deviation of the full metric from the ...
