AnAdS3dual for minimal model CFTs

Abstract: We propose a duality between the 2d W N minimal models in the large N 't Hooft limit, and a family of higher spin theories on AdS 3 . The 2d CFTs can be described as WZW coset models, and include, for N = 2, the usual Virasoro unitary series. The dual bulk theory contains, in addition to the massless higher spin fields, two complex scalars (of equal mass). The mass is directly related to the 't Hooft coupling constant of the dual CFT. We give convincing evidence that the spectra of the two theories match preci… Show more

“…The duality between the W N minimal model conformal field theories and the higher spin theory of Vasiliev on the AdS 3 has been proposed by Gaberdiel and Gopakumar in [1]. Very recently, in [2], this proposal has been clarified further and they claim that the W N minimal model conformal field theory is dual, in the 't Hooft 1 N expansion, to the higher spin theory coupled to one complex scalar.…”

“…According to the observation of [2], the original proposal in [1] should hold at finite (N, k) and one expects that the quantum deformation algebra of N = 2 W cl ∞ [λ] in [5] should satisfy the algebraic structure in (2.39), at finite (N, k).…”

“…[50] which extracts information on the AdS 5 × S 5 Kaluza Klein excitations from the N 10d = 1 flat space spectrum, in particular from its large spin regime investigated in detail here. Finally it would be also very interesting to explore the extended sym-metry structure of the universal higher spin states in supersymmetric string compactifications, in analogy to the W N -symmetries in three-dimensional higher spin theories on AdS 3 [51][52][53].…”
