Why Is There No Oscillator Representation for Operators in Planar ${\cal N}=4$ SYM Theory?
I'm studying the planar ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills (SYM) theory and I'm curious about the representations of its operators, specifically the Hamiltonian and the dilatation operator. In many quantum ...

Why do we expect isometries of bulk side to be equivalent to symmetries of the CFT?
One can clearly see that the AdS bulk isometries form the $SO(d,2)$ symmetry of the $d$ dimensional CFT explicitly. Why does this occur: why don't the isometries of the spacetimes match up or the ...

Some questions about the paper, "AdS description of induced higher spin gauge theory"
I am referring to this paper.
I guess that in this paper one is trying to relate the massless spin $s$ gauge fields in $AdS_4$ to conformal spin $s$ theory on $S^3$.
So am I right that the ...
