The Klebanov Polyakov correspondence on a squashed three sphere and Wilson loops in non relativistic AdS/CFT. / Mark D Yonge

Swansea University Author: Mark D Yonge

Abstract

Motivated by the Klebanov-Polyakov conjecture we investigate the O(N) vector model at large N on a squashed three-sphere and its holographic relation to bulk gravity on asymptotically locally AdS4 space. We present analytical results for the action of the field theory as the squashing parameter , al...
